Concerns
- AI-generated writing often lacks coherence, as seen in the example where sentences begin with verbs instead of subjects, indicating a potential decline in quality.
- The focus on spreadsheet optimization without understanding the underlying factors leads to significant issues, such as the 85% increase in walkaways, highlighting a lack of holistic decision-making.
