entropicdrift@lemmy.sdf.org 2 days agoSlop as a slang term is far older than its present use to primarily describe the output of AI, see Merriam Webster’s definition 4-C for the second noun meaning of the word:
a product of little or no value : rubbish
watching the usual slop on TV

Right, but the current colloquial usage of the word, especially in the context of digitally-manipulated images, is AI-centered. People aren't using the word "slop" to describe bad photoshops, they're using it to describe bad AI-gen.

Words can be used in multiple different, concurrent ways.
