I think that hypothesis still holds as it has always assumed training data of sufficient quality. This study is more saying that the places where we've traditionally harvested training data from are beginning to be polluted by low-quality training data
It's almost like we need some kind of flag on AI-generated content to prevent it from ruining things.
If that gets implemented, it would help AI devs and common people hanging online.
File it under "too good to happen". Most writing jobs are proofreading AI-generated shit these days. We'll need to wait until there's real money in writing scripts to de-pollute content.
