It will probably go down, but the process itself is kind of unavoidable for training LLMs, so I doubt things will go back to how they were before.

On the plus side, this isn’t a problem with AI, this is a problem with AI companies having more investment money than they know what to do with. The moment the hype fades and they don’t want to hemmorage money scraping every wiki on the internet thousands of times per day, this traffic will go back to a far more sane amount.
