Spaces Recap: “AI Slop is Everywhere”
Thursday’s Space titled: “AI slop is everywhere” dug into the “slop” side of AI with regulars and new leading voices from RenderLabs, Render Network, Manifest Network, Jember, THINK, Virtuals Protocol, Scrypted, and OTOY.
The chat unpacked what counts as mass-generated low-value content and how decentralized compute can raise the bar for quality, trust, and creativity in AI.
Look out for the full transcript we’ll be sharing soon.
Missed part 4 of our spaces series — “From Cloud Monopoly to Open Infra: Who Wins the AI Stack?”
Many of these same leaders also joined Part 4 of our Spaces series: “From Cloud Monopoly to Open Infra: Who Wins the AI Stack?”, exploring how decentralized infrastructure can challenge cloud monopolies, tap into idle GPUs worldwide, and create open systems where value flows back to builders & creators.
