Ensuring those who choose to bathe in AI slop will never be washed clean.
It’s also a great overview of company’s or services you might want to avoid. But it’s not just negative, it also shows who is taking a stand against “AI”.
Who is behind this? Who decides what rating to give? Based on what? What exactly do the ratings mean? Is there just no background information whatsoever or am I blind?
It’s done using AI, so it’s actually a love letter.

This link is at the bottom of the page: Lagoware - Ko-fi
I’ve seen that and it really doesn’t tell me anything other than there are people involved who know software development.
I’d take it with a grain of salt.blinus Thorvald, on the same page as Jeff bezos?
No unfortunately Torvalds is firmly in the “its just a tool” camp.
One is using it for his open source personal side project, the other is promoting and financing AI
If the world used AI like torvald did, it would already be better
hot take: i mean i agree “its just a tool” but a pretty unethical one tbh
How does that change the issue that they are not even remotely equivalent?
If they didn’t want to be compared to a pig, why did they go into the pigsty and roll around in the mud? One legitimises the use of AI, the other invests in it - both are on the side of Sam Altman and his ilk.
The page already seems to try to be more nuanced than “shit” and “non-shit”, so it is valid to ask why two people get the same rating. But they don’t explain themselves anyway so this is futile.
I think it’s a pretty new website. At the moment, there is only one source on Linus Torvald who says he uses “Vibe Coding” for his personal projects. I think the differences will be bigger with more time and data.
So it was released to the public without being useful yet? Sounds familiar.
nice list
I do like the fact that I can see all the sources for the claims being made on specific people. However, I would love to see a lot more information on how Lagoware decides ratings on every individual/corporation (based on vibes and information, some feel right). These kinds of opinions need to be kept in mind, particularly when “AI” full on fails and they start promoting the next scam. One of the reasons why these scams keep happening is that people aren’t held accountable for their shilling and it doesn’t rightfully damage their reputation.

Stop antagonizing a huge part of the population, let alone damning them for the rest of time. They are the problem in the same sense that a car accident is caused by driving cars, but when the actual reason is the freaking monster truck driving across all lanes, you need to phrase things a tiny bit different.
And sometimes the car accident is caused by terrible infrastructure because the system is rigged in favor of automobile lobbyists (here in the U.S. anyway).
So yes, I agree with you to a point. But the phrase “choosing to bathe in AI slop” to me doesn’t mean someone who’s popped onto ChatGPT from time to time to search for an answer for something or whatever. It means people who literally have formed their identity around an embrace of the slop machines. At this point, with all of the harms clearly on display for all to see, doing so indicates a severe lack of character and a sort of sociopathy.
