curious_vii · x · 2026-08-27
The author argues that corporate policies banning "slop" are mistaken and we should lean into it for async communication. 99.99% of comms should be AI-generated noise filtered by the recipient's "slop cannons," reserving human attention for critical exceptions. This approach delegates context ramp-up and negotiation-as-search to AI, optimizing live time for substantive decisions.
