Everybody hates AI

Our scheduled guest had to take a rain check, but fear not! Chris Kizer will be our guest next week as we discuss all things media heading into 2026. This week? You’re stuck with Roop and Sam again, but they have a topic we think most of you can relate to—hating all the AI slop flooding your social feeds (and, in some cases, your TV). And no, AI didn’t write this, we used an em dash on purpose! The gang discusses Merriam-Webster’s word of the year, slop, and how AI-generated images and video contributed to its rise in popularity. With so much AI content being pushed out, trust is eroded, and brands are better served by leveraging AI in other ways. So listen in as Sam and Roop talk about the do’s and don’ts of AI content for brands, and we’ll see you next week with the main man, Chris Kizer! —Sam, Roop, Claudia and Chelsea Tell us what you think!
