I agree that the article doesn't really bring up anything new or interesting. One important implication of a ChatGPT centered web is the removal of reward/credit to content creators. Now when you Google for something you'll probably arrive at some StackOverflow, blog, or Reddit post where there's at least an author's name attached to an answer. But ChatGPT just crawls that content without citing sources, reducing any reward for contributing. Maybe this doesn't have serious implications - after all most people contribute under pseudonyms, but its worth bringing up.
