I read to the end desperately hoping for the comforting reveal that the coworker’s meal was just a metaphor, but it never came. For those who haven’t read the article… it’s wonderful, but make sure to finish what you’re eating before you begin reading it. The imagery of that sugary altoid flavor is a bit of bait and switch.
As to the topic… the slop washing and compounding effort it creates is awful. At work we use Gemini as part of Google Workspace. I wish Google would have an enterprise option “share all prompts” for full prompt transparency between everyone in the organization. I believe this will go a long way toward solving the root problem, which is one of disrespect and laziness. If I can see your prompt history, maybe you’ll think twice before asking me to review the slop it produced.
