I want a study on the impact of generative AI on knowledge. I fear that AI hallucinations have the potential to destroy all knowledge. For now, when an AI hallucinates, I can still check an established source to see if the fact is correct. But what happens when most established sources are themselves AI generated? There will almost be no ability to verify any fact. The very foundation of society collapses and any shared knowledge. Oh wait, that already happened with flat earthers, Covid and conspiracy theories. But AI may be the final nail in the coffin for Western civilization.
