1. **[AI models collapse when trained on recursively generated data](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/shumailov-2024-ai-models-collapse-trained-recursively/)** *(2024 · 863 citations)* The paper examines what happens to generative models once their own outputs make up much of the web data used to train their successors.
2. **[The Curse of Recursion: Training on Generated Data Makes Models Forget](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/shumailov-2023-curse-recursion-training-generated-data/)** *(2023 · 255 citations)* Generative models are increasingly filling the web with text and images, so future models will likely be trained partly on their predecessors' output.
