This phenomenon now has a name — slop — in a bid to make internet users more aware of this ever-growing phenomenon.

The term is slowly gaining traction, as such content proliferates on the web. Highlighting how this type of content is now easy and inexpensive to produce, an American journalist recently succeeded in setting up from scratch a fully automated political disinformation site, capable of publishing dozens of fake news stories a day!

Note that slop should not be confused with botshit, a term referring to false or misleading content on the internet generated by artificial intelligence tools, or “bots”. The phenomenon is taking on particular significance today, as it could have a direct influence on the results of forthcoming elections. — ETX Studio
