I agree that if you completely take away their agency that it only makes the slop look more attractive but I also disagree that sentiment that “you can’t”. Technically it’s true. But that doesn’t mean we ought to give in to slop as parents. Low effort slop has been around since before AI. Find ways to teach the importance of genuine creative content and cultivate a preference for the real creative works with your children.

You can’t and any attempt to do so will only entice them.

In the narrow context of AI slop images it just such a nothing issue. There are so many insanely hard challenges to parenting that worry about you kid seeing shitty art isnt one of them.

No reason to downvote. You can’t keep your kids away from everything you think is harmful. It’s also not good for them, because even if you manage to do so, they won’t be able to properly handle it, when they’re grown up.
Explain to them what is what, what aspects about it are harmful and how to recognize it something is generated with AI or not.
Parenting isn’t about shielding your kids from everything you think is bad for them, but about preparing them to handle real life and it’s challenges.
