In this video, I explore the rise of AI-generated English-learning content—also known as AI slop—and explain why it’s spreading so fast, why it can be harmful for learners, and how you can spot it.
You’ll learn:
• Why AI English videos can give a false sense of confidence
• How to recognise the “telltale signs” of AI-generated speech
• What to do instead if you want to improve your real-world English (two words)
Let me know in the comments—have you come across these kinds of videos? Did they feel a little… off?
