AI slop

The multitude of AI-generated images of a "Shrimp Jesus" are a commonly used example of slop.

"AI slop", often simply "slop", is a term for low-quality media, including writing and images, made using generative artificial intelligence technology, characterized by an inherent lack of effort, logic, or purpose. Coined in the 2020s, the term has a pejorative connotation akin to "spam", and uses figurative language similarly, stemming from unwanted food.

It has been variously defined as "digital clutter", "filler content produced by AI tools that prioritize speed and quantity over substance and quality", and "shoddy or unwanted AI content in social media, art, books and, increasingly, in search results."

Jonathan Gilmore, a philosophy professor at the City University of New York, describes the material as having an "incredibly banal, realistic style" which is easy for the viewer to process.
