AI And Content Creation: The Coming Content Avalanche

If you're like me, the growing drip, drip, drip of the content faucet is pushing you to the edge: posts, pings, notifications, alerts. Tech journalist Charles Arthur makes a compelling argument that future content is at a tipping point. Arthur is the author of the substack blog "Social Warming," about social networks' effects on society. "The approaching tsunami of addictive AI-created content will overwhelm us" warns Arthur. The tsunami he points to is the creation of what academics call synthetic media, media that is created entirely by artificial intelligence.
