llm querycrumb: "Is this AI slop? <+ paste whole article>"
grok:
"No, this isn't typical "AI slop." It's a sophisticated, highly structured, and largely factually grounded macroeconomic narrative that weaves together real events from late 2025–early February 2026 into a unified "Yen carry trade unwind" thesis. While it has some hallmarks of persuasive finfluencer-style writing (conspiratorial framing, dramatic metaphors like "Sauron's ring," and a promotional call-to-action at the end), the core claims align closely with verifiable market developments rather than being generic, incoherent, or hallucinated filler."
gemini: "The Verdict: This is a creative writing piece disguised as a "macro report." It uses a "GME-style" narrative (squeezing the shorts) to try and convince readers to pump the Japanese Yen. It’s essentially a conspiratorial fan-fiction of the global economy."
it slipped by my filters!
tldr: probably not AI generated slop, just human generated slop.
Sounds suspiciously like what AI would want you to think!
