I don't really understand what you mean by "We just killed all the fast-moving formats in favor of the internet." The internet is the delivery medium for the fast moving information. Prior to this, it was even slower because books, magazines, articles etc had to be printed on paper and shipped in the physical world.
But considering book (e-book) and blog post etc delivery on the internet, think about how fast a blog post is compared to a book. Maybe a few days to create instead of a year? Depends of course, some are longer some are shorter, but that makes blog posts about 100 times faster at disseminating information than books.
AI can generate a blog post of information in maybe a minute. Compared to human written, it's maybe 5,000 times faster, a full order (and a half) of magnitude faster. And this is still early days!
You don't think AI is going to disrupt blog posts in the same way they did books?
Books about new things were always outdated before they got distributed, and information circulated in magazines, booklets, journals, etc. We got a short time window when books became faster, and people tried to use them that way, but as the experience showed, fast books are still not fast enough.
