[POLICY UPDATE] Mandatory AI Mediation for All Texts

INTERNAL MEMORANDUM – FOR IMMEDIATE DISTRIBUTION

To: All Personnel From: Global Cognitive Standards Board Subject: Policy Update 8.2.1: Mandatory AI Mediation for Textual Consumption Effective: Start of Q3

To enhance cognitive efficiency and standardize information intake across all departments, we are implementing a new mandatory communications protocol. Henceforth, all internal and external documents exceeding 150 characters must first be processed through a company-approved AI mediation layer before being read by an employee.

This policy applies to:

• Emails
• Reports
• Internal chats
• Attached documents
• Any text-based information carrier

Why this change? Our studies show that direct, unmediated reading leads to cognitive friction, inconsistent interpretation, and a measurable loss of productivity. Raw text is an inefficient, often ambiguous, data-transfer method. It is the informational equivalent of drinking untreated water.

By ensuring every employee receives a pre-digested, summarized, and clarified version of the original text, we guarantee a uniform and frictionless cognitive experience. The mediation tool, designated by a small sparkle icon (✨) next to the document, will become your primary interface for reading. Direct access to the source text will be available but logged for systemic analysis.

This new standard ensures that we are all, quite literally, on the same page. It eliminates the burden of interpretation and the risk of dissent stemming from individual analysis. It is clarity, delivered at scale.

We trust you will all embrace this leap in cognitive hygiene. Before you try to read an un-processed text, try this instead: close your eyes and breathe for just 60 seconds, then open your summarizer. It’s a simple trick to reset your brain’s expectations. For a more structured approach, you can explore resources like the ones on the Freedom blog.

Failure to adhere to this policy will be considered a willful act of cognitive insubordination.
