"AI" slop claiming to be "documentation"

Documentation
1

I just came across scala/scala3 | DeepWiki .

It’s some “AI” generated shit!

When you look closer most details stated there are plain wrong.

There is no simple official way to remove a project from there. It seems one has to waste time contacting the MFs and threaten them with layers. Then they seem to remove stuff reluctantly.

I guess some owner of the Scala repo has to take action. Such “AI” slop “docs” are outright harmful!

Correcting the auto-generated trash would be a massive effort, which would get likely destroyed anyway the next time the “AI” touches the “docs”.

It’s a pity one can’t send the MFs a bill for the effort to clean up their shit. It’s really dystopian what is happening right now everywhere with technology…

More broadly:

PSA: You can remove DeepWiki (and other websites) from search results:

  1. When a result from this domain appear
  2. click the kebab/durum menu usually on the top right of the result
  3. Select “Block this site from all results”

(This is from duckduckgo on firefox, but it should be similar in other search engines/browsers)

P.S: I’m not claiming the above is the correct solution, and we should expect people to do it, but in the meantime, I still advise it
