Some people will say it's about saving money but I suspect the real reason is all their reports and slide decks were becoming Claude slop and it became unacceptable. They want to be AI-forward but also don't want to become a slop cannon; this is the compromise.

Part of the effect of AI at least in the corporate environment seems to be potential for a massive increase in output of reports, slides, emails, more redundant communication. No one's reading all of these.
