00:00Is the internet dying because of AI? In recently unsealed court documents,
00:04tech leaders are warning about a potential AI doom loop.
00:08They worry what happens when AI only has AI content to learn from.
00:12Around 35% of newly published English websites are already AI-generated or assisted.
00:18Today's AI tools summarize articles and answer your questions directly.
00:22That means you get information without ever visiting the original source.
00:26And big tech gets the ad revenue from these AI summary pages.
00:30Critics say AI risks becoming a parasite on the web, weakening the human content creators it depends on.
00:36When you search for information online,
00:38there's a growing chance you're reading content created by AI, including errors and awkward phrasing.
00:44Search algorithms reward speed and volume.
00:46So this low-cost AI content often outranks original reporting.
00:51It's pulling readers and ad revenue away from real newsrooms.
00:55The problem can be even worse in other languages,
00:58where flawed English content gets translated by AI and spread further.
01:03Potentially with even more mistakes.
01:05Don't just rely on AI summaries.
01:07Click through to the original source.
01:09And always double-check.
