"As AI transforms workplace learning, a paradox has emerged: 40% of U.S. employees report receiving AI-generated "workslop," content that looks polished but lacks substance. It's something that's costing organizations nearly $9 million annually for every 10,000 employees, according to research from coaching platform BetterUp and the Stanford Social Media Lab. Each incident of workslop consumes nearly two hours of cleanup time, with nearly half those on the receiving end seeing colleagues who send such subpar work as less creative and less trustworthy."
"Deloitte professionals have long had access to rich learning resources, but discoverability was the biggest challenge. Finding the right content at the right moment was time-consuming. In a 10,000-person workforce, if each professional spends just 30 minutes weekly searching for learning content, that's 5,000 hours of lost productivity each week. Scout delivers real-time, curated learning tailored to each professional's role, past activity and career goals, making learning continuous and adaptive rather than a one-time event."
AI-generated "workslop"—polished but shallow content—affects 40% of U.S. employees and imposes substantial time and trust costs, costing about $9 million per 10,000 employees annually. Each instance requires nearly two hours of cleanup and reduces perceptions of creativity and trustworthiness among colleagues. Discoverability of learning content creates significant productivity losses when employees spend time searching for relevant resources. Deloitte launched Scout as an AI-powered learning assistant to deliver real-time, curated learning matched to role, activity, and career goals. Scout is designed to augment human judgment, personalize learning continuously, and implement safeguards to avoid indiscriminate AI output.
