I feel a more important issue is the answer accurate. than is it AI.

#42> Published content will be later used to train subsequent models, and being able to distinguish AI from human input may be very valuable going forward I find this to be a particularly interesting problem in this whole debacle. Could we end up having AI quality trend downwards due to AI ingesting its own old outputs and reinforcing bad habits? I think it's a particular risk for text generation. I've already run into…
As someone in SEO, I've been pretty disgusted by the desire for site owners to want to use AI-generated content. There are various opinions on this, of course, but I got into SEO out of interest in the "organic web" vs. everything being driven by ads. Love the idea of having AI-Free declarations of content as it could / should help to differentiate organic content from generated content. It would be very interesting…
I don't see the point. There's lots of old content out there that won't get tagged, so lacking the tag doesn't mean it's AI generated. Meanwhile people abusing AI for profit (eg, generating AI driven blogs to stick ads on them) wouldn't want to tag their sites in a way that might get them ignored.
And what are the consequences for lying?

Hmm, forgetting natural language for a moment and instead considering programming languages: it’s pretty easy to generate nonsense but semi-plausible looking ASTs without the help of AI. Could this be used to attack GitHub’s copilot? Step 1. Release a tool that generates nonsense code across a thousand repositories, and allow anybody to publish crap to GitHub. Step 2. Copilot trains on those nonsensical repositories…
Imagine this as a security attack vector. Instead of nonsense, spam a bunch of repos with code that does a specific thing but in a very hard to understand way. Then add in a small piece of very hard to understand, but legit looking malicious code. Copilot trains on it and then starts feeding it to developers around the world. Probably easier ways to achieve this, but interesting to think about.

It would basically depend on how serious the search engines are about wanting created vs. generated content. Generated content is ultimately going to be a regurgitation.

If the owner of an SEO site wants to use AI for "content generation", doesn't that mean they didn't care about the human-generated content in the first place?
Seems like a choice between garbage and slightly more expensive garbage. What is interesting or organic about that? Back in the day, people used to put things on their websites because they cared about it and wanted to say it.

Does use of a search engine violate the "No AI" covenant with oneself?
Variation on the Turning Test: prove that it's not a human claiming to be a computer.
Modeling premises and Meta-analysis are again necessary elements for critical reasoning about Sources and Methods and superpositions of Ignorance and Malice.

#47The long term impact of the ease of generating low nutrition digital content using language models may be that people put down their devices and return to the real world. We’re already far down that path with the existing internet where most content is generated for SEO. Anything you’re consuming on the internet or even on a TV may just be random noise generated by some model so why waste your precious time consuming…
> The long term impact of the ease of generating low nutrition digital content using language models may be that people put down their devices
The problem is people don't always make the wise decision. Evidence: the junk food industry is alive and kicking.
Some people will disconnect from devices, but others may just say "this is the way things are now" and adjust themselves to the flavor of junk content.

#48FWIW I would like to shamelessly plug https://www.humanproved.com here . The idea is that a human needs to pledge that their content is human generated to get a unique badge , that they can display alongside their content along with a url. Someone can use the url to verify the time stamp that the badge was issued.

I read this more as meaning that they work for a legitimate company or two that is trying to organically improve their search results without stooping to nasty tricks
