Slopaganda wars: how (and why) the US and Iran are flooding the zone with viral AI-generated noise

US and Iran deploy AI-generated viral fakes—even transparently bogus ones—to flood social feeds during conflicts, eroding trust and desensitizing users to all media. State actors exploit cheap synthetic slop for psychological ops, turning platforms into memetic battlegrounds where truth drowns in noise. Stakes rise as algorithmic amplification scales disinformation globally, dissolving shared reality into factional echo chambers ripe for control.
