Content generation tools have made publishing easier, and therefore less deliberate. In B2B, this produces « acceptable » but interchangeable content, while editorial responsibility quietly erodes. The answer is not « less AI » but AI used as an editorial system: structure, consistency, control.
Editorial debt is not old content: it is content that costs and paralyses.
