> The Post-LLM World: Fighting Digital Garbage https://archive.org/details/paper_20260127/mode/2up

This appears to just be the output of LLMs itself? It credits GPT-5.2 and Gemini 3 exclusively as authors, has a public domain license (appropriate for AI output) and is only several paragraphs in length.

Which proves its own points! Absolutely genius! The cost asymmetry of producing and checking for garbage truly is becoming a problem in the recent years, with the advent of LLMs and generative AI in general.
Totally agree!

I feel like this means that working in any group where individuals compete against each other results in an AI vs AI content generation competition, where the human is stuck verifying/reviewing.

Not a dig on your (very sensible) comment, but now I always do a double take when I see anyone effusively approving of someone else's ideas. AI turned me into a cynical bastard :(

Yes, I did it as a joke inspired by the PRISM release. But unexpectedly, it makes a good point. And the funny part for was that the paper lists only LLMs as authors.

Also, in a world where AI output is abundant, we humans become the scarce resource the "tools" in the system that provide some connectivity to reality (grounding) for LLM
