If you want to know more about Generative AI, please click the following.
In general, "slop" can refer to something of poor quality or shoddy workmanship.
In the context of generative AI, it often means the following.
- Low-quality content: While technologies such as text generation, image generation, and music generation by AI have advanced, the mass production of content with thin context, meaningless repetition, or low quality is seen as problematic (e.g., "AI-written but unintelligible articles," "messy AI-generated images").
- Mass-produced spammy content: Increasingly, large amounts of content are automatically created using generative AI and distributed for SEO and advertising revenue purposes (e.g., "AI-generated but useless blog posts" and "AI-generated random art").
- AI content lacking creativity: AI-generated content sometimes lacks originality and human sensibilities, and is often derided as "slop" (e.g., "AI-generated movie scripts are too stale," "AI art characters with the same faces").
- Concern about the flood of AI content: There is a concern that the increase of AI content on the Internet will bury valuable human-generated content, and "AI Slop" is also used to point out this problem.
We expect that the future development of generative AI will establish the definition of the term AI Slop.
Of course, please note that different people will have different opinions about the quality of the products created by generative AI.
Also, the following terms are similar to AI Slop.
- AI Spam: AI-generated spam content
