AI slop is avoidable, and a bad delivery is still yours

Commenting on a post by Arthur Castro about showing the reasoning behind AI-generated documents (“I want to see your prompt, not your ppt”).

Yeah, I think everyone working with AI “in prod” is reaching the same conclusions. AI slop is quite avoidable. And the reasoning/direction is your problem.

You may no longer be the person who “writes”, but you’re still the person responsible, and a bad delivery is still your bad delivery.

I translated it into English with the help of AI (Claude): it let me bring my LinkedIn posts to people who don’t read Portuguese without rewriting each one from scratch. I reviewed the translation to keep my original meaning and tone.
