## Resource

AI is making work faster, but at what cost? It's weakening collaboration, eroding culture, and spawning new problems and costs that most organizations didn't see coming. In Part 1 of our deep-dive into modern AI, we're exploring the behavioral science behind AI adoption, why "work slop" is becoming a growing problem, and how you can use AI to strengthen, rather than damage, your workplace and teams. Topics [0:00] We need to talk about AI [5:19] How AI changes collaboration and mentoring [10:14] Cultural Thinning and Work Slop [15:10] Slop in action [20:20] What happens when AI is implemented poorly [25:14] Mitigating AI's Negative Impacts [26:55] Coming next: Trust, leadership, and cognitive surrender
