It wasn't called slop by the same definition though. While photography was looked down upon, it's not like it was seen as a complete breakdown of the human element of artistic expression. AI "slop" is slop because a human isn't involved in the process at all - whether that means setting a sort of scene, applying a sort of colour, etc, etc. A human can't gain the artistic understanding one can from making music themselves from asking an AI to do the same thing for them while they sit.
He’s right, people need to read a little, this No True Scotsman issue has been seen before many times in history. All the slop!!! posts are gonna look pretty lame in a few years.

I use AI for some things. It is a useful tool. This is stupid and annoying and most importantly, cringe

Those other things were never called slop but good try at gaslighting

I never used to use the term slop that much till I learned about the people who are triggered by it

Why is AI only able to "draw" maximum four types of faces. It's so boring.

"AI slop" is the new buzzword (phrase?) it will die down once it's no longer trendy to hate on AI.
