Harvard Business Review: AI-Generated “Workslop” Is Destroying Productivity

In collaboration with Stanford Social Media Lab, our research team at BetterUp Labs has identified one possible reason: Employees are using AI tools to create low- effort, passable looking work that ends up creating more work for their coworkers. On social media, which is increasingly clogged with low-quality AI-generated posts, this content is often referred to as “AI slop.” In the context of work, we refer to this phenomenon as “workslop.” We define workslop as AI generated work content that masquerades as good work, but lacks the substance to meaningfully advance a given task.

Edit: Klarna CEO Makes Employees Review His AI- Generated Vibe Coding Projects. The URL prefixes this with "nightmare boss", which... yeah.

Second Edit: Pivot To AI weighs in, and is not complimentary on the "study" methodology.
