I think this is exactly right, and indeed this is a lot of the value. "Content-generation" is already a thing, and yes it doesn't need to make much sense. Apparently people who read it don't mind.

People don’t read it, search engines do.

BTW, we should mandatorily tag generated content for search engines in order to exclude it from future training sets.

Apart from that, hopefully the people building training sets use gltr or something similar to prevent training on generated text.

Well, hopefully, someone will come up with a language model that picks words based on GLTR purpleness. Automated data collection deserves automated data.
