I recently wrote a blog about how I'm prompting. I don't think it's boring. I think we don't have the correct language to talk about the techniques/processes but I bet that not everyone prompts/guides AI the same way. You can almost tell from the types of complaints people have that they are using it very differently. So, I think it's worth discussing.

This comment captures this AI era of oddly verbose and empty observations:

"I recently wrote a blog about how I'm prompting." (skips reference to blog)

"I don't think it's boring."(lazy self-centered antecedent for 'it': prompting? blogging? blog about prompting? self?; operative terms are 'I don't think' and 'boring')

"I think we don't have the correct language to talk about the techniques/processes..."(lacks language but keeps going; adds empty concern about correctness for unspecified techniques)

"You can almost tell from the types of complaints people have that they are using it very differently." (repetition that doesn't clarify; but you can almost tell there is a point from some of the words)

"So, I think it's worth discussing." (go on...)

"...but I bet that not everyone prompts/guides AI the same way." (I bet a betting man bets; thank you; you're a a fabulous audience; I'll be here all week; try the veal!)

Slop is a very human trait, which explains why AI emits so much of it.

I didn't want to self promote my blog, I already posted it to HN if anyone was interested. Takes 2 clicks.

"It" obviously refers to writing about prompting. Would be clear if you read the OP. Humans have this amazing ability to understand context. Next time I'll be sure to include references and sources in my reply.
