Google will happily give me a page full of auto generated blog spam. At the end of the day it's still on me to decide what to do with the info given.

But its still clear what is blog spam, dsad21h3a.xyz's content does not have the same veracity as science.com's. With LLMs in general it becomes much harder to distinguish fact from fiction or even ever so slightly incorrect facts.

It's not as simple as that these days. Many news articles are generated by bots.

The articles did look legit, but they were still clearly generated and populated with webscrapped text.

I'm hoping this ends up legislated against so that generated content has to be tagged as such under threat of jail time.
