    I wonder if they went straight to "AI" as an insult independently from the older generations, or if they were using "slop" like the rest of us but had to adopt a new insult because "slop" has been co-opted to refer to things that are terrible whether AI or not.

      "slop" existed before AI. It wasn't co-opted: it never specifically meant AI-generated.
