    What are they classifying as ai slop? Cause in YouTube there is a lot of low effort content that aren’t slop, and there is also low effort content narrated by ai that I’d consider slop, and then there is actual ai slop

        Ehh there’s a lot of low effort content on youtube, but I don’t really see that much slop. Most of the low effort ones are just clips usually taken from twitch with minimal editing

      Everything produced using any amount of generative AI is slop, without exception. Hope this clears up the confusion.

        Of those 500 videos, 294 were classified as AI slop, a term Kapwing defines as videos with obvious AI-generated visuals or low-quality compilations using clearly AI-generated scripts and voiceovers. The 59 per cent rate is roughly three times the proportion found on YouTube in the same study, making TikTok’s default experience dramatically worse for anyone opening the app for the first time.

        I looked up the article the og source referenced, which does say what they defined as ai slop.

        The original article isn’t helpful because statistics don’t mean anything if they don’t also define what they’re measuring, and they cut the definition short.
