I think we're going to see a significant decline in human contributions to data sets that is ultimately just vacuumed up and regurgitated by AI with fewer and fewer people visiting the original sites. There's just much less personal motivation to do it, and less ability to get resources from traffic needed to mention a site that's primarily scraped by AI bots.
Sites like WikiHow have seen a significant decline in traffic, and even more so in organic search.
