AI Slop Is a Brute Force Attack on the Algorithms That Control Reality by Jason Koebler at 404 Media:

The best way to think of the slop and spam that generative AI enables is as a brute force attack on the algorithms that control the internet and which govern how a large segment of the public interprets the nature of reality. It is not just that people making AI slop are spamming the internet, it’s that the intended “audience” of AI slop is social media and search algorithms, not human beings.

There’s a devaluation here, of something. The algorithms will surely respond. The Turing test becoming the Turing defence.
