Sixty Years of AI Slop
This AI-generated image pair claiming to show "two images of the same couple taken 60 years apart" exemplifies the strange fun that comes with what is called "AI slop". It carries visually convincing but semantically incoherent content. The mismatch between the two panels (young men on the left, elderly couple of woman and man on the right) invites confusion. Whether intended as a celebration of transgender identity or as an self-ironic statement of AI fails, it seems to tap right into the internet's appetite, given the thousands of 'likes' it received.
