"Our primary conclusion across all scenarios is that without enough fresh real data in each generation of an autophagous loop, future generative models are doomed to have their quality (precision) or diversity (recall) progressively decrease," they added. "We term this condition Model Autophagy Disorder (MAD)."

Interestingly, this might be a more challenging problem as we increase the use of generative AI models online.

Current AI is not actually "intelligent" and, as far as I know, not even their creators directly describe them as that. The programs and models existing at the moment aren't capable of abstract thinking oder reasoning and other processes that make an intelligent being or thing intelligent.

The companies involved are certainly eager to create something like a general intelligence. But even when they reach that goal, we don't know yet if such an AGI would even be truly intelligent.
