Personally, I think it's a perfect word for what it is: carelessly created content that no one wants.

Except you also see people complain about how many likes or views they get on social media. There is signal that people like a subset of "slop".

Worse (?) a lot of what actual humans write is slop.

This doesn't mean we should make slop easier to create.

More slop is a bad, not a good thing.
