“Workslop” is when your colleagues or bosses communicate with you by pasting big chunks of AI-generated text. The core problem with workslop is that the effort involved is asymmetrical, like a denial-of-service attack: it takes almost no effort to produce text with AI, but it still costs effort to read.


jfc… there is one guy that does this to me all the fucking time. Whenever he needs something from me I get a wall of AI text from him with the problem and how i should tackle what he needs, and its almost always fucking wrong. It pisses me off to no end, not that he is wrong but that he doesn’t even have the common fucking courtesy of just sending me an actual DM instead of just letting his AI bot dump a novel of bullshit on me. And anything I reply gets another wall of text in return.
