A friend of mine is an AI skeptic at a pharma company that's over-enthusastically encouraging AI use. He said that AI is saving him time on research and finding files, but he's "spending so much time cleaning up other people's AI slop" to make it not worthwhile.

He described coworkers forwarding incorrect AI meeting notes to leadership and incorrect figures put into important slides. It reminds me of this, but generally I'm pretty sure that no one wants to read anyone else's AI output. bsky.app/profile/schw...

slop is something that takes more human effort to consume than it took to produce. When my coworker sends me raw Gemini output he’s not expressing his freedom to create, he’s disrespecting the value of my time

LLMs/AI let you do more of what you were already doing. For people who are thoughtful and productive, it can make them more thoughtful and productive. Everyone knows that underperformers slow a team down. I didn't think about it until today but AI lets underperformers slow a team down even more.
