Given that the top google results are now generated I think we already have a massive recursion problem. I think we would benefit from training a model specifically to just detect a likelihood of content being generated and then bias other models against the higher likelihood generated content so that we don’t end up with LLM echo chambers.
I think there is a fallacy “if I am more productive at home than therefore all must be more productive at home”. Consider though that the most sophisticated companies in the world when it comes to analyzing human behavior are asking for employees to return to work, do you really think they would do this if this meant a productivity decrease. I’m suggesting the harsh reality is that while you may be more productive at home the majority of your colleagues are not and they unfortunately have ruined it for everybody. I don’t think this has anything to do with sunk office space costs, it’s about bottom line productivity.
