The erosive force of AI slop

Generative AI: eroding professional and vernacular illustration since 2021.

I saw this on a wall, and I almost tripped on the footpath as I walked by.

At best, it’s AI-generated slop; at worst, it’s a human imitation of GenAI’s characteristic hideous visual language.

A poster with the title “Circ Històric Raluy” featuring a colorful circus scene, a family walking on a red carpet, a lit-up ferris wheel, and a hot air balloon. The image looks as if it was AI-generated.
