every time we’ve been asked to use it as part of an 😊 AI Initiative 😊 the results have been Dog Shit. the answer to creating quality materials, on time, is simply to pay good writers who know the content a good rate to do it. this is such good sense that it is of course anathema

Everyone who uses AI for content gen tries to justify it with increasingly bizarre mitigations from "we're only using it to prototype", "we're only using it to iterate", "we're only using it to fill in some gaps", "we're barely even using it", "hey it still took us all night", "it's not even good"

participated in a big sales pitch this year (I wrote and presented the sample). sales team put together a PowerPoint deck with AI. it was garbage, too long, airy, meaningless. had to be completely redone by the team, who should’ve just been trusted to make it from scratch.
