I agree.

All subs related to AI or ML appear to get flooded with this stuff right now.

Its always been there. This sub because of the sheer numbers game is flooded by non practitioners. It used to be worse because in the past OP would have been downvoted to hell

It hasn't always been here. The sub was usable for reading research very recently.

It still is, you should just change the way you sort posts.

They managed to stay on top of it at /r/covid19.

I guess they have a much more strict rule set that is heavily enforced.

i think something changed in the past week though. /r/MLQuestions has recently been getting a lot of "can you recommend a free AI app that does <generic thing>?". I'm wondering if there was a news piece that went viral or something that turned a new flood of people on to what's been happening in AI or something like that.

Here's a sneak peek of /r/MLQuestions using the top posts of the year!

#1: I've recorded over 1500 farts to train a model to recognize farts. Who or how do I share the dataset with to be more available to anyone who may find it useful for audio tasks?
#2: Does anyone here use newer or custom frameworks aside from TensorFlow, Keras and PyTorch?
#3: I 25f want to get into AI research/Engineering - but I’m a administrative assistant w a theatre/philosophy degree

Just stop fighting it. Add whatever keywords you don't want to see to your block list. You see a stupid question, low quality, etc, block user.
