AI-generated content is spreading fast — from strange social media videos to fake product reviews and “polished” workplace writing that says very little. This flood of low-quality output is often called AI slop, and it is creating real problems for consumers, platforms, and businesses.
In this episode of Down to Business English, Skip Montreux and Samantha Vega get Down to Business with AI slop — the growing wave of low-quality, AI-generated content that is showing up across the internet. They explain what AI slop looks like on platforms like YouTube, how it is impacting online shopping through fake or exaggerated reviews, and why it is now appearing inside companies as so-called ‘workslop’ — AI-written emails, reports, and documents that sound professional but lack substance.
D2B 398 explores how AI-generated content is changing the internet — and why the biggest issue is not AI itself, but quality control. From social media feeds to online shopping to workplace documents, the real challenge is separating what is useful from what is just slop.
