I wonder if people holding those fears are even using the internet today? Its been this way, full of automatically written noise for decades perhaps now. The limiting factor is not what method you use to churn out junk content. Its probably just limited by cost of compute and hosting, things that have been “too cheap to meter” for these sorts of junk content websites for a very long time now.

The future ai spam internet will look exactly the same as the current automated spam internet, is my guess.

The people holding the fears are the ones currently paying out the ass for anti-spam system to try to block it. It's forking expensive. And will only get more expensive as the spam gets better and more human like.

This will further push consolidation behind huge companies like Google and Cloudflare.
