For the Internet as a whole, yes, but not for this narrow case of legitimate news organizations. If Facebook could have building full of moderators to review flagged content on their site, Google could easily fix this issue with a team to handle reports of low quality AI content. Not to mention, how most of these sites sprung up out of nowhere. That should already be a red flag for the algorithm to de-rank until a human could review. And the example of reworded blog spam with identical photos, posted at a later date, again, should be trivial for a team that cared to catch manually(flagged) or through an algorithm.

It's not over, unless Google doesn't care enough about Google News to fix it.
