All that I see being “new” with LLM regurgitated garbage is that they call the system doing it an AI and not just a spam bot. Even back in the day, randomly entering words and adding “.com” to the end would result in either: a legitimate website, a porn site, a 404 error, or a page filled with random text like an AI generated article that wasn’t hard to determine was made by a computer and not a real human either there to popup when searching literally any words and trying to generate traffic for ads, or as a placeholder for the domain name.

Now that it’s harder to tell it’s randomly generated vs human generated, even the “legitimate” websites are using it.

Time to go back to just reading books (those written pre llms)
