God damn it, this is going to go the way of ‘woke’. Chuds will completely bastardize the word to turn into some epic own against us, and then all the normies will parrot it. It’ll be everywhere by 2026. ‘We want you for the Armed Chuddery of the Us’

I don't remember other years' choice of word, just mild disappointed with some of them. However, this one I've gotta get behind. "Slop" is such a good word for dismissing a ton of stuff, not just but mainly AI slop. It's such a widespread blow to the legitimacy AI "companies" and grifters.

I believe last year was "enshittification".

Tbh that's a good one too

Slop is very useful in reference to any and all keys-jangling done to distract the working class

They've never been more right, though enshittification was a good one too.
