It seems that producing a consistent, intentionally limited, output benefits mostly those who are vested in maintaining that output/narrative, while consciously obscuring actual critical authoritative, competence-based, information.

Incomplete, even misleading, fluff overshadows (by volume), displaces, and ultimately replaces authoritative knowledge.

To keep it in perspective, adult entertainment is all about fluff - unless you're dealing with safety in the industry, and health-related issues.

And where other, non-X-biz, more serious affairs are concerned, socially, politically, gen AI is an even greater threat to objective understanding.
