How Do You Deal With Your Boss's AI Output?
okr · hn · 2026-10-18
An HN poster describes how their boss, empowered by AI, scrapped sprints and planning and now floods Slack with polished machine-generated messages — output that feels written for machines, not humans. The post wrestles with how to consume this flood, memory atrophy from delegating everything to AI, and the chaos of everyone in the company working in their own AI bubble with only access controls as boundaries. The thread discusses how people are setting up their own machines to cope in a company context.
