“Workslop” is when your colleagues or bosses communicate with you by pasting big chunks of AI-generated text. The core problem with workslop is that the effort involved is asymmetrical, like a denial-of-service attack: it takes almost no effort to produce text with AI, but it still costs effort to read.

Profits don't matter. The broliarchy can just let the US government print money for them and call it a "strategically essential sector".

If you're giving them your money, that's one thing, but the AI slop industry will continue until the US government breaks with tech bros or the US economy collapses trying to keep it going.
