Webster Publishing Company of the United States, the editor and publisher of Webster's Dictionary, recently announced that it will select the English word “slop” as a hot word in 2025 and define it as “low-quality digital content usually generated in batches by artificial intelligence.” Webster Publishing said on its website that in 2025, a large amount of poor quality content will flood the internet, including ridiculous videos, distorted advertising images, vulgar promotional content, fake news with fake facts, poor quality books created by AI, and inefficient work reports known as “work waste.” This content not only aroused public disgust, but was also widely consumed and disseminated.
