I went down a rabbit hole about 'model collapse' which is what happens when you train models on newer internet content that is increasingly ai slop
Apparently ai generates content by cutting off the long tail of the statistical distribution of what something could be so ai content converges towards the 'most average thing' over time.
If you think of artificial flavors like fake lemon you notice that one big 'lemon note' in the flavor but it lacks the complexity and other subtle notes that makes real lemon. It's like you made a 8bit version of a song ... some information is lost.
In French we say 'the beauty is in the flaw' the lack of that surprising or flawed human element in ai art imho is what makes ai art technically accomplished but without interest, your eye glides over it, your brain refuses to care
'AI blindness' will become a big topic.
Website visitors might not consciously realise, 'This page was designed by AI'. But subconsciously, they know it wasn't crafted with care and empathy.
Their brain will quietly dismiss the content.
They glaze over and click away.
