"The simulacrum is never what hides the truth - it is truth that hides the fact that there is none. The simulacrum is true." - Jean Baudrillard

Aligned with the theory of Bullshit Jobs - LLMs expose the fact that the white collar work most of us have been doing at this point were actually bullshit. When LLMs "fake" work, it actually hides the reality that there was no meaningful work here in the first place.

Layers of reading internal docs to synthesize new docs to turn into slides to aggregate into docs, where a different set of people only partially read or understand what they're seeing at any given mutation cycle...... it's all a farce of earnest but ultimately useless Productivity. The LLMs are just making it more obvious.
