Yes, but I'm hopeful for a survival of the fittest instead of an extinction.

Now there's more pressure to have a stronger signal and hopefully rewards to match.

What do you think happens to the least prolific organisms that lose the survival of the fittest?
To be clear I'm talking metaphorical survival of the fittest that takes the form of prestige/popularity/status/etc. of people and organizations.
In the same way that monasteries preserved ancient greek philosophy during the middle ages, hopefully some groups will maintain our modern culture through these dark ages.
