@plexus I worry a bit that LLM can lead to a stagnation of language.

Blog posts, press articles,... etc. from 20 years ago sound a bit different than todays texts.
Press articles from 40 years ago sounds imho already a bit outdated.
Going back 60 years it becomes already quite noticable old fashioned with differences in the lexicon.

But if from now on a significant part of the press corpus becomes LLM generated, feeding only on itself, how can a language change over time anymore?
