how 'knowledge collapse' can happen with AI, not only 'model collapse' as LLMs turn into gibbering idiots. thus everything that's fat-tailed will be discarded (for instance indian knowledge systems) from the public store of knowledge, and we'll be left basically with wikipedia and google's/whatsapp's trove of data as the sum total of human knowledge.
