How long are your progress reports? Mine are a one sentence message like "Hey, we've got a fix for the user profile bug, but we can't deploy it for an hour minimum because we've found an edge case to do with where the account signed up from" and I'm not sure where the AI comes in.
AI comes to write it 10x longer so you pretend you worked a lot and think the reader can't realise your report is just meaningless words because you never read anything yourself.
I keep mine pretty short and have been writing them up bullet-style in org-mode for like 15 years. I can scan back over the entire year when I need to deal with my annual review and I don't think I spend more than 5 minutes on this in any given week. Converting from my notes to something I would deliver to someone else might take a few minutes of formatting since I tend to write in full sentences as-is. I can't imagine turning to an AI tool for this shit.
