If content-generation AI is given sufficient resources and training input, I think 4>5 is pretty much guaranteed.

The recommendation systems that power "algorithmic everyone" are not optimizing for real human interaction, or real people sharing real things; they're optimizing for the absolute most engaging content that they can find.

This is Kardashian-killing because no one person or brand -- not even Kim -- can create the most engaging content in the world on every single post; and even if they could, they can't do it at a rate to fill an entire feed.

Sufficiently good recommendation systems kill the Kardashians because they can crawl through an ocean of user-generated content and find the winners.

If you combine a sufficiently good content-generation AI with the data you glean from the world's best recommendation system, you can just create the most engaging possible content, without even knowing what that would be.
