I feel this way about the internet being taken over with user generated content.
It’s strange taking information at face value, and then when you come across something you’re deeply knowledgable about and it’s horribly incorrect yet has thousands of upvotes, you start to wonder just how much you’ve read is actually junk info.
Little wonder that LLMs can’t get things right when they’re working off knowledge bases of absolute shit.

Wasn't the internet always user generated content?
For the demise to have began, there must have been a time where it existed.
