📉 The Risk of AI Model Collapse
An article in Machine Society examines the problem of "model collapse" — the degradation of AI quality when training on data generated by other AIs. Companies are attempting to avoid "AI slop" by actively purchasing high-quality human data, such as books and Reddit archives.
🌍 This problem makes authentic human data (pre-AI data) a critical and scarce asset, stimulating the content licensing market.
