Over the past few years, American workplaces have come to rely on artificial intelligence to write documents, make phone calls, select salad dressings in the cafeteria, and perform approximately 22,000 other tasks more effectively than any human ever could.
Starting February 1, 2026, the act of relieving oneself will also be improved as PoopGPT becomes available for purchase.
“The US businessperson faces many challenges during the course of a workday,” says Shirley Addison, CEO of TruckPile, which developed the software. “By far the most inefficient and unpleasant is the act of going to the restroom.”
PoopGPT will change all that, she says – not just managing and scheduling, but actually taking over the physical act itself.
“What was once considered unpleasant and a nuisance, really, will become as routine and enjoyable as sending an email or updating a timeline,” says Addison.
The program was tested at 20 companies across the US for three. months last spring, and the results were largely even better than anticipated.
“There was some resistance to AI getting itself involved in such a personal process,” says Darren Hoostra, HR Director at Hansen/Weeks Chicago, one of the test sites. “But after just three or four days the staff was noticeably less stressed and perkier, and even walked with more of a spring in their steps.
There was also an upswing in productivity, since personnel were spending 67 percent less time on the process and could devote more attention to strategies and task forces.
Hansen/Weeks has also projected an annual savings of $104,000, based on having to purchase fewer tissue rolls, soap products, and deodorizers.
