# BI Slop

**[Ibrahim Diallo](https://daily.dev/sources/idiallo)** · 4 min read · 7 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

A software engineer reflects on how mandatory AI adoption at companies leads to uncritical, low-quality use of LLMs for business tasks. After being pushed through obligatory ChatGPT training, the author found themselves copy-pasting meeting transcripts and data into AI tools without verifying outputs — producing hallucinated action items that misled colleagues. Drawing a parallel to blindly merging large AI-generated PRs, the author argues that 'BI Slop' (Business Intelligence Slop) is a direct consequence of companies buying expensive AI tools before identifying real problems, then forcing employees to justify the spend by using them regardless of quality.
