Model collapse is just a euphemism for “we ran out of stuff to steal”

It's more ''we are so focused on stealing and eating content, we're accidently eating the content we or other AI made, which is basically like incest for AI, and they're all inbred to the point they don't even know people have more than two thumb shaped fingers anymore."

All such news make me want to live to the time when our world is interesting again. Real AI research, something new instead of the Web we have, something new instead of the governments we have. It's just that I'm scared of what's between now and then. Parasites die hard.
