I can not prove it but i think that already since a long time that most articles are copy + pasted and some kind of summary. Which might have happend automatically. Like someonr might write a real article on anything and then hundreds of sites copied it, without adding anything

The incumbents have their training data that can also be used for the next generations of AI. This is just them helping others to pull up the ladder to avoid more competitors.
There's no way an AI generated article costs less than a cent.
So humans writing articles cost more than the billions they're pumping in to AI? I very much doubt it.
Could you guys stop dumping your trash in the forest please? It obstructs my garbage trucks which I send to the forest to dump garbage in.
The problem is that the resource they consume to feed the AI, (human generated content) has become a limited resource, completely mined.
they could pay people to write, IE, news agencies pay writers to write and AI site are one of their clients.
you should get DMs from anthropic offering 50$ for your weeks posts and comments...
Instead they want to pretend they have still room to grow for free. but they can't
(That is just basic economic theory, I want those companies to fuck off already)
Mirrors face, fingers point.
Well, technically, the AI companies aren't making any profits so the actual cost is higher, and also the revenues from the AI articles are declining because people aren't interracting with them.
I feel like all of this research is extremely dubious. There's basically no way to know how much of the internet is AI or not. It's indistinguishable in most cases and especially at scale.
