Excess verbiage in communication. Design docs, root cause debriefs etc all are clearly AI generated with little thought to whether they are helpful to the reader. They are certainly helpful to the writer as they can just offload it to the AI.

Its hard to discern the kernel of truth that the author is trying to communicate. So much of documentation is now AI generated and rarely does it help in understanding code bases or diagnosing issues in production.

This was my experience at MSFT for the past year or so.

"Helpful to the writer, useless to the reader" is such a good way to put it. The cost just moved downstream. I've started skipping the doc entirely and just reading the code, feels faster at this point

I hate long-winded communication.
