The same as it does now, but with even more AI slop.

I hope not! I wouldn't be surprised after "Angel Engine" and its relationship with analog horror. I will say, though, I don't think LLM's are great at coming up with original, enthralling concepts, for now. A lot of them started on places like this and spiraled from there.

Humor me. What would you want it to be like?

LLMs are never going to be creative on their own because they are text predictors bounded by their training set. An AI would need to be able to experience things to be able to create something new, so we need to move past single purpose static models for that.

Instead of ~6500 SCP entries, there will be significantly more. If humanity goes on long enough, eventually every single thing and concept will be transformed into an SCP.

"J-SCP 67: Lamp with a fat ass."

I think that one might already exist. It's clearly some kind of memetic phenomenon that can't even be contained, so... Keter class, iirc?

I'm going to guess... meta-fictional-wiki that is almost a parody of other collaborative efforts that slowly gets more horrifying, not because of the articles, but because the contributors slowly get more unhinged/ fantastical.

It'll be cool while theres about 20 or 30 people who know about it, then the moment it gets popular enough to be a known thing It'll be absolutely swamped with AI and nobody will want anything to do with it any more

Leaving comments on articles while listening to house."

I think the life cycle of collaborative projects - small circle to big blowup, drifting from the original spirit or ethos for better or worse - will be accelerated by algorithmically-driven social media. Hell, it's already happening.

When I look at older collaborative fiction, it's much more likely to remain centered around a few core creators and their guidelines or approaches. The more content in a project is owned by them, the more they're able to influence others to not diverge too far from it.

When things blow up massively, that can all change in a heartbeat. Whoever is running the project frequently struggle to maintain those guidelines: Either because they don't want to seem like controlling jerks, or because the flood of new content genuinely overwhelms their ability to moderate.

The problem is, this accelerated lifecycle can also burn out projects far more rapidly as people become disconnected from what appealed to them in the first place.
