AI has transformed how we work—but not always for the better.

In this episode of the Process Debt Podcast, Chris and Toby unpack the paradox of AI-driven productivity. Yes, we can create more than ever before. But with that power comes rising expectations, ambiguous goals, and a growing sense of burnout.

Together, they explore:

• Why AI increases input volume but doesn’t guarantee better outputs
• The hidden pressure of “performing with AI” in the workplace
• How teams are skipping alignment and verification in favor of speed
• The false promise of AI as a magic problem-solver
• And how slow productivity might be the counterbalance we need

If you’ve ever felt like you’re drowning in tasks, prompts, and unspoken expectations—this one's for you.
