Personally I would put them in this order (most likely to least):
  • People are too used to posting being free (being the product)
  • Probably others - "All My friends use this other service"
  • Too hard with traditional methods
  • People like to remain anonymous on the internet so they can be mean without accountability

I'd add two more:
  • So much of the internet is built on metrics meant to make you look attractive to advertisers. Most companies will always prioritize the metrics over real engagement, so until the metrics are able to reliably slash AI slop, there's little incentive to do anything about it.
  • Some users may not care if their engagement is coming from AI or real people, as long as they get engagement. I think Zuckerberg said something to this effect... like I can easily see how people get endorphins from AI likes and AI retweets, even if they know it's AI

I agree with your second point for sure. Slop isn't about the people who read/view it; it's about the people who post it.

Ah yes, I didn't intend for mine to be in any particular order, just the order that I thought of them.
