By Frank M. Anderson I don’t know when exactly “AI slop” became a slur, but it’s out there. Somewhere between a Reddit review and a Kindle comment, the phrase crystallized: AI + book = trash. That equation is broadcast like a fact — unexamined, unproven, dismissed. Here’s the truth: what people call “AI-slop” is almost…

What started as a casual back-and-forth about AI ended up somewhere between gospel, outrage, and a love letter to creative resistance. It started with a post by my friend Will Asbury, who made a sharp point about all the AI fear swirling around the internet: “While you’re scared and bitching about AI, others of us…

There’s a lot of hand-wringing about AI these days. Depending on who you ask, it’s either going to solve all our problems or destroy humanity in a burst of algorithmic malice. The truth?

Spiritually.It’s a platform that once promised connection but now delivers manipulation, outrage, and infinite scrolls through curated distraction. And yet, I don’t think it’s beyond saving.
