I think this really needs to be framed as a "report low-quality content" feature, not a "report AI slop" feature. Otherwise, it just incentivizes people to hide their process, and it risks turning into a witch hunt where everything gets judged on whether it "looks AI" rather than whether it’s actually bad content.

I would disagree. I would never activate a feature that down-ranks or hides results based on some ominous judgement on quality by a Kagi team. For AI Slop its pretty easy to determine because it is always lows quality and useless content that provides zero value and is a waste of time. The guidelines as specified also allow for some margin or error here I would argue.

Just my take: I don’t think “AI” automatically equals “slop.” There’s plenty of human-made slop too, and some AI-assisted content is genuinely useful. I’d rather see this framed as “report low-value/spammy content” than “report AI slop,” since the AI label tends to turn into “this looks AI” witch-hunting. That said, our baseline assumptions seem pretty different here, so we probably won’t fully agree.
