Oh yeah. Like AI content just barely clears the bar for "good enough" and tons, tons, TONS of the internet absolutely RUNS on "good enough." AI as it exists now is already a perfect and I do mean PERFECT tool if you want to create just reams upon reams of spam. And many websites and services keep their barriers low specifically to attract spammers. And either the spammers or the websites themselves can now generate spam content at hither to only DREAMED OF scales.

Mind you, this is going to make our already barely usable internet utterly INTOLERABLY clogged with repetitive, derivative, bottom of the barrel content... but we've been trending towards that anyway. AI is just going to slam it's foot on the gas pedal. The value of internet advertising is about to crater again and I don't think it ever fully recovered from it's last cratering.
