I think you have something backwards. When the cost to ship trash code trends to zero, the profit trends to infinity.
The cheaper it is to produce slop code, the less the demand there will be to buy it. Companies will self-vend instead of buying the slop being sold. Your profit margins are someone else's inefficiency.
It's hard to determine whether something is slop before you buy it.
Not beating the association between AI and scams with this one.
