So we get the same flaws as before with a higher power consumption.

And because it’s fast and easy we now get more fakes, scams and disinformation.

That makes AI a lose-lose not to mention further negative consequences.

Not if you source your training data from reality.

Are you treating "the internet" as "reality" with this line of questions?

The internet is the map, don't mistake the map for the territory — it's fine as a bootstrap but not the final result, just like it's OK for a human to research a topic by reading on Wikipedia but not to use it as the only source.

Sooner or later someone is going to figure out how to do active training on AI models. It's the holy grail of AI before AGI. This would allow you to do base training on a small set of very high quality data, and then let the model actively decide what it wants to train on going forward or let it "forget" what it wants to unlearn.
