AI Tags for Content
With the wider adoption of LLMs, more content is being completely produced by AI giving more weight to the "dead Internet theory" where the majority of the web will be created by Bots or AI agents. As this continues I see people valuing purely human generated content more and more.
Going forward I hope authors, news sources, and content platforms (such as LinkedIn) start putting disclaimers on content to indicate the extent to which AI was used in the piece. This would be similar to how advertisers flag advertisements as ads even if it is native advertising. Authors will likely start doing this voluntarily (and hopefully honestly) to put more weight on a piece. Was AI used to completely generate the piece, to only edit the content, to take the bullet point ideas of the author and make it cohesive, etc.
Hopefully, this will combat the rapid decay of the Internet as more of what we consume online is completely AI generated.
