SLOP GRENADES

Summary from the TLDR Founders newsletter

A 'slop grenade' is bad AI-generated code that someone created, didn't properly understand, and then handed over to a reviewer to deal with. The problem is that the person who submitted the code can't fully explain the decisions behind it. This means reviewers need to work out what parts of the PR can be trusted and potentially also teach the author what their own code does. The time saved generating the code becomes someone else's work.
