I don't get it. How does the initial anecdote about AI being shitty and sloppy tie in to the rest of the article?

> if we increasingly describe workers as merely being “human-in-the-loop,” what is the human actually there for?

Your anecdote just answered this! Because the LLM slop output in excel wasn't good enough!

It does not make sense at all - we just react very well to AI outrage slop on HN (and other platforms) which is why these articles get written so much. You just need some half-baked idea and boom! frontpage
