Well unfortunately for you, it has a precisely defined and well-understood meaning for all those not covering their eyes and ears in denial. Quoting Merriam-Webster:
> Digital content of low quality that is produced usually in quantity by means of artificial intelligence.
Chosen by the editors as word of the year, by the way.
"Slop" in English means "liquid junk, rubbish, tripe". No need to call for Merriam Webster's help.
The point is that AI can produce slop (as people do, too), but it's just silly to imply that everything it can produce is slop. That's just lazy, sloppy thinking.
Sure. I'm fully aware that AI can be useful, especially once we move past LLMs.
However, I do think that the majority (or mainstream) use of GenAI today is indeed not very useful or even harmful. And I do think that something like railroads are more useful by orders of magnitude.
