BetterUp and Stanford Declare War on AI Garbage Jobs
In a groundbreaking academic roast, researchers from BetterUp Labs teamed up with Stanford Social Media Lab to slap a new label on the IQ-minus-10 offspring of AI work: low-quality AI-generated output. Because generating fake human effort wasn't already an existential crisis, this spicy collab decided to brand it, hopefully making bosses realize that when AI starts churning out garbage faster than your office microwave burns popcorn, itâs time to rethink 'efficiency.' No dollar amounts or patents involved, just a fancy academic squad flexing their vocab to explain why your AI assistant's âhelpâ sometimes feels like texting drunk autocorrect.

BetterUp Labs and Stanford officially named what we've all feared: AI is cranking out junk work so bad even robots would cancel their subscription. Welcome to the future, where your coworker is simultaneously invisible, unhelpful, and a terrible typist.
The term they coined for AI's dumpster fire output finally puts a label on why your bot's 'report' reads like it was written by a caffeinated squirrel on deadline.
Stanford and BetterUp say low-quality AI work needs a name. How about "algorithmic amateur hour"? Because nothing says 'professional' like text generated by a confused toaster.
