The Slopstar 2: Slop Wars

In a purely hypothetical world where the menace of generative AI threatens the future of art as we know it, the inevitable war that breaks out is fought not by nations, but by followers of different philosophies about what art is. The SlopstarZ fight for art to all be manmade - whether it intends to be expressive or slop. The Creatives see that as not going far enough, that all art of any kind must be made to be expressive and serious. And of course, there are the BraszeAI - who are trained to output as much AI slop as is possible.

In short, this is what an online forum flame war would look like if it were a three-faction tactical RTS game. Do you have what it takes to change the game?
