This starts with a claim that last year over half the content on the internet was created by AI, and links to a source. The source makes no such claim, rather, over half of internet traffic is from bots. Even that claim is suspect, but it’s very different from half of the content on the internet coming from AI.
I stopped reading at that point.

The correct link is this: https://graphite.io/five-percent/more-articles-are-now-created-by-ai-than-humans https://graphite.io/five-percent/more-articles-are-now-creat... I don't think the dead internet theory is something that is particularly novel at this point.
