I can't wait for that. I get the feeling it's gonna get real messy before we figure out solutions to all the problems caused by AI-generated content.
I mean yeah, there's already plenty of human-generated misinformation and shit, but it seems to me (not an expert) like ai is capable of fucking with society on a whole new scale.
The big difference is that high quality human generated content is often based on reputation, a history of quality content, and frequently reviewed by experts in the field (very common for medical articles).
But AI has none of that. It's 100% quantity over quality, and that's just internet pollution as far as I'm concerned.
We really do have to figure something out, though.

Reddit already tricked a bot into writing an entire article when they noticed a website was clearly scraping /r/wow
She couldn't be bothered to get a single screenshot of the article?
Maybe it's a bot lol
China is already using it to generate shorts on YouTube. I hope Google has the balls to invest in fighting it, but that company has been downhill lately.
