Eugen RochkoI see generative AI on the web the same way I see forever chemicals in the real world. The effects may not be immediately apparent but they are poisoning mankind. Those who acquired knowledge and skills in the before era will be fine, but newer generations won't have the same reference points to tell reality from fiction. They will search for "baby peacock" on Google and have no reason to believe the actual birds look any different to what they're shown. I find that sad somehow.

I agree with the sentiment but not the projection. There will be a grey gap but ultimately a verified source will arise.
Those who stray from reality will suffer an eventual reality correction. The longer they maintain it the bigger the correction, all the way up to the fall of empires.
At the moment the lack of European military cover led to US ‘soft power’ on open markets. The American firms won as their unethical practices can out compete those who don’t burn out people or work to not polite the commons.
The rise of European independence will provide the opportunity to do AI right and ethical. We are the hope and so we are the ones who can grasp the destiny. After all, I don’t need to worry about the garbage of X because a better way was invented by good people.
Thank you for that by the way.
Everything is connected and we demand better AI and we don’t mean bigger garbage. I’m confident we will again be able to reliably find a picture of a baby peacock.
