The AI-generated Garbage Apocalypse may be happening quicker than many expect. New research shows more than 50% of web content is already AI-generated.

A ‘Shocking’ Amount of the Web Is Already AI-Translated Trash, Scientists Determine

Its obvious when watching Google and Bing results.
Try to find any sort of objective information and the first 3-4 pages will almost all be AI generated garbage that took most of the information from some other highly outdated source that was garbage to begin with.
And as the engines are AI, they can automatically manipulate search results and keep dates and time stamps updated, so that whenever google visits, the page is always the "newest" information.
When the first five results are the same sentences worded slightly differently like a freshman essay it is not a good sign that I will find a real answer.
The most annoying thing is that almost all tech information has fallen victim to this shit.
We now have to go back to pre-2000's methods of searching sites, by first identifying sites as reliable and then by relying on the sites own search engines to not suck.
In some cases, this is workable.
In cases where the sites have integrated Google searches, this is even more useless than using Google itself.
I wonder if this will push humanity to go back to books and libraries.
Books and textes on paper have one big favour: They are not as easy to change than digital textes.
