Epistemological corrosion created by machine induced semantic replication entropy

The headline is a extract of a skeet from a gamedev/designer/dev person of Bluesky: Osaka

• Skilled workers are de-skilling themselves
• Institutional knowledge and skills are actually being lost
• The models require user output as input to generate output
• The collapsing knowledge becomes the new input
• Outputs get worse
• Users get worse
