A lot of this content was already auto-generated in the sense that there are a lot of sites which operate on the business model of generic structure, data scrape, generate article about release date of popular movie or game. I imagine as a replacement of those sites this might actually be a mild improvement... well until it starts hallucinating release dates and also performs worse than human scrapers confusing new movies with ones they are remakes of or just have similar titles.
I wish Google would just start having a policy of immediately delisting those websites from search results, or at least deprioritizing or graying them out. If it falls under a certain category of website, it should meet certain quality standards. Like I assume they already do for medical information.
If they had a more general search version of Google Scholar where it was all stuff that Google reasonably thinks was actually made by other humans, that would improve things a lot.
