I don't think it'a good thing it all. There are multiple reasons for this

One is for something to have quality you need to support people making it. And the AI doesn't make stuff, it just repackages it. If there was no one on the internet writing about 'x' topic the AI couldn't give you an answer. And by pretending AI does actually write it we are lowering the support for the real creators which makes them less likely to write. They need to eat, and it's great if they can get their bread by writting because they do their job and get their bread. If they no longer can do that, they will put hours into something else which gives us less writing.

Second one is that AI will probably in my eyes be the leading subject of making sure there's more fake news and less scientific literacy. This would be too big to sum up in short text form. But how I see it the important stuff happens because of perspective/context changes. But the web and AI programs have next to no context. If I go on the web I get a small glimpse of someone's view, before it gets mushed together with someoene elses short view, and then an ad, and some completely unrelated paragraph about some event happening on the other side of the globe, and so on and so on. It's like studying something in a circus. There's no context in a circus outside of chaos and I think the same applies to technologies we build and are building. There's lot of data, but very little communication or meaning happening. Now imagine how the world looks if majority of what is written is made by machines we've build to spin around existing (already crazy with no context) written word and produce more of it?
