We are already headed to this point but just imagine: In the future you get some answer from AI and you want to see if it's true. Where would you check? Ask another AI or the same AI if it's right? I can just see a potential future where AI could pretty much tell us anything and we would have way to know if it's right or not.

right but I am thinking of a future a few years down the road where people are doing less and less of that and wikipedia gets eroded or is also filled with generated articles. Wikipedia is already under attack by people like Elon Musk so if we are not careful resources like wikipedia won't exist.

English Wikipedia can be downloaded locally with kiwix if you have about 50GB of hard drive space and don't mind not having pictures. Its a good idea if the internet gets cut off, like it often does during unrest in authoritarian regimes (e.g., Iran)
