Not everyone has the same experience. There are areas where the slop works on each of us since we don't know enough to see what's wrong with it.
For example AI slop cars? That would work on me. I don't care enough about cars to know a Toyota from an Audi.
@futurebird @BruceMirken The best example I know of is with young peacocks.
The fake ones have tiny adult plumage, the real ones have brown.
And really short tail feathers which the young males will display anyway, because it's what dad does.
Plenty adorbs without fakes, but the fake version is much prettier to look at.
The fake one is in stock image collections, which makes it worse.
