AI companies and users of AI are littering all aspects of public space with "AI slop", but does this term reflect what it really is? We have terms like visual pollution, sound pollution, etc. In a way, "AI pollution " seems a proper term, but AI also pollutes meaning, like with AI generated text. Is AI pollution a new form of "microplastics"? Everywhere and in everything?

AI slop is called that because it’s meant to be consumed as slop has always meant mediocre food served to the masses. Pollution is not meant to be consumed since it’s a byproduct of consumption.
