Your Blog vs AI Slop

In this episode, Meredith and her husband discuss the overwhelming rise of low-quality AI-generated content—dubbed “AI slop”—and how it’s affecting platforms like YouTube and Pinterest. Website owners and bloggers are encouraged to create authentic, imperfect, human-driven content to stand out. The episode also explores how consumers can identify AI-generated material and why real content still matters for engagement and SEO.
