TREE NEWS reports: Pew Research used an AI detector to scan nearly half a million webpages, finding that about a third of content posted after ChatGPT’s launch shows signs of AI generation. The fingerprints are concentrated on .com domains and appear to be multiplying rapidly.
Pew: A Third of Post-ChatGPT Web Is AI-Written
The finding matters less as a measure of AI authorship than as a measure of how quickly detection itself has become a market input: content provenance is now something platforms, advertisers and data buyers have to price. The concentration on .com domains suggests the shift is landing hardest on the commercial web, where volume has long been a proxy for authority. Whether detection keeps pace with generation — and whether anyone acts on the signal — is the open question.
