It's going to follow the path that the internet took. At the beginning of the internet, most pages were created by individuals. Even company web sites were normally created by a small team. You could trust the information. Then the ad networks started along with SEO and content marketing.

Right now you can relatively trust LLM results but then people will find a way to manipulate the output and ads will get inserted and trust will be lost.
