Artificial intelligence threatens Wikipedia’s survival—the head of the open encyclopedia sounds the alarm

Wikipedia is increasingly feeling the impact of changes in information search methods brought about by the development of artificial intelligence. The site’s page views have dropped 8% over the past year and continue to decline. The resource is a key source of data for artificial intelligence models, but they increasingly feed users information from Wikipedia, depriving the site of traffic. This poses a potential threat to the entire ecosystem that supports online encyclopedias. Image source: Wikipedia
