Conversely to popular CEOs' beliefs,
my job would actually be much easier if AI-generated shenanigans wouldn't exist at all.
When it comes to AI at work I started keeping a "Reverse Kaizen" tracker, where I measure how much less efficient our workflows are due to it. Like how many extra clicks are needed to do a task than before, how many more seconds it takes something to initialize, bugs and errors introduced into what were flawless workflows, etc. What's funny is the inefficiency exists for workers who use the AI as it makes dumb choices, but also workers who dont use the AI as they struggle to do their tasks with it jumping in the way adding redundant clicking and extra steps to push it out of the way. Last year in total we measurably lost 1 week per worker of productivity. Our bosses are now having buyer's remorse, but are also suffering from sunk cost fallacy. One month into 2026 we're already up to 1 cuumulative day lost.If you have a fediverse account, you can quote this note from your own instance.
