Managers in my org love using it in "their" Slack messages.

I've come to realize that folks are including "ai-slop" in their ~public use of AI to intentionally signal to others that they're using AI. To some, that signal results in revulsion. To others, that signal results in approval. In my opinion, the approval signal comes from investors, board members, c-suite, and now management. They want us to use AI? Let's make sure they know we are.
