the term “slop” has been so successful as a way of dismissing AI content with the appropriate level of care (none, as nobody who cared made the slop) that I’m starting to see AI boosters try to change the meaning of the word. it’s important to push back when you see these information colonizers:

- insist that genuine human effort is slop because it isn’t to their taste (ie the new Mario movie)
- claim that their AI output isn’t slop because they “checked” it and found it to be particularly good
