The model architecture will still improve obviously. But the quality of the training data has been irreversibly altered and will only get worse with time.
It would be true if dataset’s composing mechanism was nothing but a blind internet scraping.
But it’s not so simple. There’s many hundreds of quality and trust filters that were created solely to prevent such things. As I said, it’s a solvable issue, even if most folks here really believe that the smartest AI was buried somewhere in 2021
