The web was already flooded with human generated spam, adding AI spam to the mix hasn't really changed anything meaningful - you still can't find valuable content on the vast majority of webpages.

What we really need is a better search engine, one that doesn't include low quality content... that might be something AI can help with.

Yes, but the sheer volume of trash these AIs can generate will be an even bigger problem that needs addressing.

Plausable sounding trash, specifically. More plausable than what extremely low paid humans can put out.
