AI has transformed the way businesses create content, but is it making marketing better or just louder? In this episode of Coffee & Conversion, Clay Vaughan and Luke Frazier discuss the growing problem of "AI slop" and why relying too heavily on AI-generated content can weaken the very thing that makes a business stand out.

The conversation also examines how business owners can embrace new technology without outsourcing the relationships and communication that build lasting trust.
