878 - You Will NEVER Regret Listening to this Episode feat. Max Read (10/21/24)

Chapo Trap House

Journalist Max Read joins us to discuss his new piece on the proliferation of “AI Slop”: unwanted, low quality, often surreal content flooding the internet and degrading its various platforms. We talk about the dystopian quality of the trend, the economic factors encouraging it, and how it portends poorly for the future of online.
