Drowning in AI Slop? Saving Quality in the Age of Infinite Content

AI has democratised content creation — but it’s also unleashed a tidal wave of low-quality, derivative and sometimes misleading material. In media and entertainment, where trust, creativity and craft are everything, “AI slop” poses a serious challenge.

This punchy and practical session explores what AI slop actually is, why it’s flooding platforms at scale, and how broadcasters, studios, streamers and independent creators can protect quality, credibility and commercial value. We’ll examine the difference between smart AI augmentation and lazy automation, discuss the reputational and legal risks, and highlight emerging standards and best practice in editorial oversight.

From commissioning and development to post-production and distribution, this panel will offer real-world strategies to ensure AI enhances storytelling rather than dilutes it. Expect candid debate, case studies, and actionable advice for anyone working across content, technology, marketing or platform strategy.

Because in an era of infinite content, quality isn’t optional — it’s your competitive advantage.
