Ya just gotta wonder how the cetacean one got on the books in the first place. I mean, was somebody running around randomly impregnating whales with stolen sperm at some point?
In this paper, we show that Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) suffer from catastrophic forgetting even when they are trained to approximate a single target distribution. We show that GAN training is a continual learning problem in which the sequence of changing model distributions is the sequence of tasks to the...
Interesting paper that points out the likelihood that extensive use of generative AI on the web will eventually cause theses models to collapse. The likely outcome is even wilder hallucinations and eventually, gibberish.

On Catastrophic Forgetting and Mode Collapse in Generative Adversarial Networks (arxiv.org)
In this paper, we show that Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) suffer from catastrophic forgetting even when they are trained to approximate a single target distribution. We show that GAN training is a continual learning problem in which the sequence of changing model distributions is the sequence of tasks to the...
