I'm seeing an unfortunate pattern where someone wants to write an email, and "asks Claude", producing a needlessly verbose response that the recipient doesn't even want to read. The slop is obvious. This behavior is being pushed down by senior management.

Someone else said it best: AI isn’t increasing productivity much for the average worker, it’s just allowing them to do their job and put in less effort.

And I think that’s entirely fair to be honest. The workers aren’t going to see any raises or bonuses from AI productivity gains. Why should they go out of their way to make their boss richer?

So the recipient feeds it into Claude as well with the instructions to tl;dr it.

It probably does happen. It’s slop all the way down.
