Guaranteed to Fail with ChatGPT at Work

Meet the workplace's newest "high performer": the person who can generate a flawless paragraph in twelve seconds and defend it for exactly zero follow-up questions. Guaranteed to Fail with ChatGPT at Work is a razor-dry, warmhearted satire about modern office life-where "Drafted by AI" becomes a get-out-of-accountability card, verification is treated like a luxury spa service, and every "final" file is simply a stepping stone to the next draft.
Across emails, chat threads, meeting transcripts, memos, and other corporate artifacts, Doc Disaster documents three unstoppable failure engines:·       No Verification - because confident tone is basically a source·       No Ownership - because "we" did it, and also nobody did it·       Infinite Drafts - because the only thing worse than being wrong is being finalYou'll meet the Option Hoarders, the Prompt Maximalists, and the executives who crave "clarity" but punish specifics.
You'll watch teams "align" their way around decisions, outsource conversations to a tool, and ship elegant narratives that collapse the second a customer asks one simple question: "Where did you get this?"This isn't a how-to guide. It's an anti-guide-a pocket-sized tour of the wrong way to use AI at work, lovingly rendered in the language of quick syncs, stakeholders, and "per my last email."Inside you'll find:·       A CC chain where "Drafted by AI" is used as a legal theory·       A dialogue where "Source?" is treated as a personal attack·       A chat thread where prompting replaces thinking in real time·       A memo establishing an "Official Prompting Policy" based entirely on vibes·       A meeting transcript featuring AI as the "third attendee" (and first scapegoat)·       The infinite draft loop, in its natural habitat: your inbox·       Reviews from hell, plus the defensive replies that keep the cycle aliveIf you've ever:·       Pasted a confident number into a deck because it looked right·       Promised "methodology in a follow-up" with no intention of following up·       Requested "three options" to avoid picking one·       Shipped a beautifully formatted document that was.
spiritually accurate.this book will feel uncomfortably familiar. And if you accidentally wanted any of this to go well, you'll sense the smarter move hovering just beneath the jokes-quietly waiting for you to verify one thing, own one decision, and stop iterating long enough to be done.
