Slop is, by definition, AI generated. So ... no it didn't.
1 comments

slop is not, by definition, AI generated. The word slop is from the mid 16th century, and its modern colloquial/meme use originated in 4chan in 2016. That's why we call AI slop "AI slop", and not just "slop".
Time to update your dictionary -

slop: "digital content of low quality that is produced usually in quantity by means of artificial intelligence"

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/slop

It is strictly this meaning I intended.
