The model architecture will still improve obviously. But t he quality of the training data has been irreversibly altered and will only get worse with time.
It would be true if dataset’s composing mechanism was nothing but a blind internet scraping.
But it’s not so simple. There’s many hundreds of quality and trust filters that were created solely to prevent such things. As I said, it’s a solvable issue, even if most folks here really believe that the smartest AI was buried somewhere in 2021
