The whole world is falling apart because 40 percent of humans are just incomprehensibly stupid and instead of trying to do something about it, leaders do nothing but try to manipulate them for their own ends.

The arrogance of the BBC to post this while using AI to create the cat in the title. It’s just as much low effort slop as anything posted to facebook.
Edit: For all you Redditors who feel the need to say „It was a deliberate choice“ I’m aware of that. I read the article and saw their disclaimer. It’s still a stupid choice on their part.

It’s exhausting joining a new sub or group because you want to discuss some book series or TV show or whatever but it ends up being nothing but low effort AI spam

the platform incentives make this almost inevitable. engagement algorithms don’t care if content is human or AI-made — they just see clicks and shares. and AI slop is specifically designed to trigger engagement, so it rises to the top.
the backlash will probably only work if platforms actually start penalizing it, but they have no financial incentive to do that. more content = more ad impressions. quality doesn’t factor into the equation unless users start leaving, and most people won’t.
Social media was already unusable by stupid people, influencers and ragebaiters. If AI slop gets people to stop using it then I’ll take it.

Oh no, social media was such a great source of content, whatever will we do.

How do we know that this article isn’t AI Slop?

It’s gone a bit over the top though. I posted an original b&w pic in a sub and was bombarded by redditors saying it was AI slop. It wasn’t.
I did a search in Reddit and found the same image colourised from 4 years ago that had been posted in a different sub. That definitely wasn’t AI slop.
I suppose that it goes to show that it’s difficult for some folks to tell the difference but also, some folks just like to troll.

No it’s not, nothing will happen. Happening status? Nothing.

It honestly might be for the best, too many idiots on social media spreading hate and disinformation for engagement, maybe AI floods it all with slop and people get sick of it and move away from social media platforms

AI slop is a guy who breaks into your house, steals all your shit, and then, with a straight face, offers to sell it to you the next day.

It’s really frustrating to me because Facebook still serves a purpose. There’s no other resource that has so many local events listed on it and I feel pretty out of the loop without it (and no I don’t want to download another app, that won’t even list as much as the Facebook events tab) but my feed is just littered with slop. I only go on there when my friend wants to find something to do.

I’ve had to report more than a few pics people have posted to the r/ aww sub that were obviously AI.
C’mon people, I just want to look at cute animal pics. Not this slop.

Zuck off Fuckerberg, we didn’t ask for any of that. The connection with friends and family was what made people join Facebook in the first place – and you ruined it.

[Napster](https://fossforce.com/2026/02/the-wild-west-napster-is-gone-whats-left-is-an-ai-mall/) is now an AI „music“ generator. This shit isn’t going away.
