Convincing Garbage — The Hidden Cost of AI
What happens when producing content costs nothing? You get more of it. Far more. And most of it is wrong.
In this episode, Susana Quintás examines a phenomenon that already has a name—AI slop—and asks what it means for organisations that have quietly handed content generation to any employee with a keyboard and a subscription.
The dilemma isn’t whether to use AI. The dilemma is what happens when you don’t govern what AI produces. When internal policies get drafted in minutes and never questioned. When commercial arguments are built on hallucinated data. When institutional knowledge is slowly rewritten—silently, without anyone noticing.
Susana proposes a practical framework: a three-tier internal quality seal that doesn’t restrict AI but ensures it passes through human judgement where it counts. The question she leaves open is the harder one: what is the board’s role in governing the knowledge that AI is already generating on their behalf?
This is Gobernanza de la IA: el coste de la basura digitalnot a technology episode. It is a governance episode. The challenge is one of criteria, not content.
