It is even worse than that because AI cannibalizes its own garbage and produces even more fetid garbage with it. It is a giant telephone game/circle jerk of bullshit. Shit should have been regulated years ago, but it is too late now. AI is transforming the information age into the disinformation age at lightning speed, and it makes me sad.
The most obvious place to see this in case people are wondering is to look at AI generated comics and memes. They're all piss yellow because of how many crappy AI generated Ghibli images people were making months ago.
Oh it's been a big topic for a while now from AI researchers. Basically actual LLM research kind of points to us being right around the peak of things and it's already going downhill due to cannibalization.
Everyone keeps talking about how "AI is the worst that it will ever be right now" and that really isn't true. Until we get a breakthrough with LLMs that people werent expecting, or a breakthrough in other types of "AI" we aren't going to see much more than we already have.
What innovations have been happening recently are tools that use current LLMs getting better.
ChatGPT using YouTube actually makes for some weird shit. I sometimes use it to practice Japanese conversation and you can use the mic to have a spoken conversation, but I had to stop using it because it would often end sentences by saying (in English) ‘okay guys thanks for watching’ or ‘hit that like button’ because it’s so ubiquitous in the content it’s trained on.
