What if artificial intelligence were slowly drifting away from reality by feeding onโฆ itself? That is the troubling paradox of data autophagy: when AI models reuse their own outputs, a vicious circle sets in.

๐ A gradual loss of diversity and nuance
๐ A โcopy of a copyโ effect that degrades quality
๐ Search engines increasingly filled with synthetic content
In a world where 90% of online content could be generated by AI by 2026, how do we avoid a massive impoverishment of information?
๐ฌ Solutions exist:
โ๏ธ Diversifying sources to avoid algorithmic inbreeding
โ๏ธ Developing self-correcting mechanisms to preserve creativity
โ๏ธ Striking the right balance between artificial intelligence and human intervention
๐ก Can we still keep control over how AI models evolve? And above all, how do we stop AI from going round in circles?
