What happens when most online content becomes AI-generated?
Generative models trained on the data they generate tend to deteriorate over time, forgetting the true underlying data distribution. This phenomenon, known as “model collapse,” leads to models over-representing common events and forgetting less frequent but important events. As the majority of training data comes from the internet, the risk of deterioration increases if human-generated…
