Comment on Why do neurotypicals like AI slop?

Aside from what others are saying, I think you’re also making a mistake in interpreting people’s interest in generative AI. Most people making/using AI art aren’t looking for “good art”, they’re looking for a “good enough asset” to fufill a niche they don’t or can’t value. For example, a small buisness owner might use AI to create their logo. It won’t be good, but its only competing with what they can draw as a non-artist. It only needs to be passable, not good. In the same vein from the viewer perspective, they often aren’t looking for something high-quality or thought provoking (esspecially on a platform like Tik-Tok). Generally, people scrolling on Tik-Tok aren’t looking for something good, they’re looking for something mindless to distract them, thus the emphasis on mindless scrolling over guided or curated content.
