> Also, recipients see senders themselves as more untrustworthy.

Yeah, of course, lol. And if you send me human generated garbage, I will trust you less too.

> With more companies insisting staff rely more on AI - or face losing their jobs - the rise in workslop is somewhat understandable. Since staff are growing increasingly likely to use the technology, the temptation to take shortcuts is more probable and

I find this contradictory. If the company is forcing people to use AI and expects individual productivity growth, then it is NOT "shortcut" to use ai to speed up. They are not taking shortcut, they are doing what they were told to do. And if it leads to slop, maybe the company should pressure them less.

This is like telling to nkt test REST services and then pikachu face reporting REST has more bugs, because testers "took shortcut by testing only ui".
