@22 I didn’t invent the term, I just helped popularize it a bit (and tried to attach “unwanted” to it in order to differentiate from more ethical uses of generative AI) https://simonwillison.net/2024/May/8/slop/

In this case I’d argue that slop is in the eye of the beholder: most people would consider weird AI Facebook images slop, a smaller group apparently enjoy it

(I quite enjoy some of it myself, occasionally - for the sheer weirdness of it)
