The AI feedback loop: Researchers warn of ‘model collapse’ as AI trains on AI-generated content
As a generative AI training model is exposed to more AI-generated data, it performs worse, producing more errors, leading to model collapse.
You're viewing a single thread.
Maybe we need to label AI-generated content to, you know, avoid confusion.
Sorry, best we can do is a race to the bottom fueled by greed and incompetence.
That will be a refeshing change.
That's what has been happening, and is likely what will continue to happen. Not much change there really...
Yes that’s the joke.
Wouldn't it have to be funny to be a joke?
I thought I was being funny. Sorry if it didn't tickle you just right.
Please respect my personal space and refrain from tickling me.
Comedy is hard.
I'm sure we can compromise on a mandatory database of registered AI-generated content that only the corporations can read from but everyone using AI-generated content is required by law to write to, with hefty fines (but only for regular people).
Oh goody. I've been wanting to use this since my slashdot days... today is my first chance!

Thanks, I was wondering how old it was when they said "Slashdot days."
Oh, do me next, do me. Open source adversarial models trained to detect and actively label things which it detects as belonging to AI. Probably would end up looking like a browser extension or something. Ublock, but for AI, basically.
Sounds great, how do we enforce it?
If the AIs want to avoid digital incest they'll enforce it for themselves.
The AIs dont want anything themselves and those who make the decisions about them want the most profit, what costs more, verifying training data or AI incest?
Sounds like something an advanced language learning model would say....
It's important to understand that a language modelling AI can only produce responses based on its inputs.
Ah, you're suggesting using RFC 3514. Good thinking.
Thank you for bringing that standard to my attention.
Far too late for that now.
