In some cases there's also no preparation or verification happening at all, which massively inflates the productivity gains of AI. Lots of VCs and investors asking companies to move into "trust the AI" mode.

I once consulted for a company in the content marketing business that was one of the largest and fastest growing startups of its country. The content production in itself was "cheap", a dollar for 500 words. But it collapsed, due to the unbearable amount of people required to review

Now virtually all content is generated by AI and the old customers don't have anyone to verify anymore.

Companies are made of people who are shitty to each other but trust machines blindly.
