Course description

AI can produce polished-sounding work in seconds. But polish isn’t the same as quality. A paragraph that reads professionally but says nothing. A summary that organizes the wrong things. A confident-sounding output that’s subtly wrong. This is AI slop: output that looks finished on the surface but lacks the accuracy, specificity, relevance, or judgment to be genuinely useful. And it’s the most common way AI actually costs people time at work, even when it seems to save it. This course teaches you to recognize AI slop across text, images, and video; diagnose why a weak output turned out the way it did; and apply the right fix. Whether that’s a sharper prompt, better source material, a real editing pass, or rejecting the draft entirely. You’ll work through realistic workplace examples: business paragraphs, LinkedIn posts, customer emails, case studies, internal announcements. You’ll learn a simple four-question check to run on any AI output before you use it, and a three-bucket decision framework ready, revise, reject that turns quality control into a one-minute habit. The goal isn’t to make you faster with AI. It’s to make you better at judgment which, in a world where AI is everywhere, is what separates professionals whose work actually earns trust from those who ship polished-sounding work that falls apart under scrutiny.
