Generative AI models are increasingly trained on data that includes outputs from other AI models. This practice can lead to a phenomenon known as "model collapse," where models trained on synthetic data begin to degrade in quality. Recursive training loops can silently erase diversity, amplify errors, and push models away from reality, even if a small amount of real-world data is included. AI
