> Just because you can deal with your inbox more quickly doesn’t mean you’ll spend your afternoon on the beach. The more emails you fire off, the more you’ll receive back, and the never-ending cycle continues. I've seen this firsthand. It's so easy to produce "content" now, like emails, presentations, etc., that more of my time now is just sifting through AI slop looking for signal. I'm on a board for a nonprofit, and we've seen a person that is upset with the organization send dozens of AI-generated quasi-legal demands full of hallucinations of rules and laws that don't actually exist. So now we're forced to pay a real human lawyer to deal with a denial of service attack of ChatGPT slop and are spending lots of time just dealing with the onslaught. Our productivity has crashed as a board due to a single bad actor enabled by ChatGPT. At work, I'm also getting buried in AI sales calls and AI resumes. It's getting more and more difficult to find signal in the noise. It wouldn't surprise me if there's a lot of people who are experiencing lower productivity for similar reasons.
