    • As with the Facebook AI-slop farms, social media shock jocks churning out obviously fake, low-quality images don’t care whether they’re riling up real people, boring them, or creating fodder for bots and other spammers. 2024 August 21, Charlie Warzel, “The MAGA Aesthetic Is AI Slop”, in The Atlantic, archived from the original on 29 Aug 2024:
    • Well once again AI slop makes everything more expensive . I hope people are enjoying their AI slop videos :X . Also i bet Sony is just increasing the price because they have no competition.

    • I've always enjoyed the people acting like AI slop is actually great content and people are just narrow-minded and "prejudiced" against AI-generated writing.
