They have already been trying to use ai to combat and identify ai in college and highschool papers. So far it's been severely ineffective. AI has gotten pretty good at writing out a sentence or two that looks like it's real. If ai improves enough I doubt they'll be much of a way to identify it all.
You're looking at it in a flawed manner. AI has already been making up sources and names to state things as facts. If there's a hundred websites for claiming the earth is flat and you ask an ai if the earth is flat, it may tell you it is flat and source those websites. It's already been happening. Then imagine more opinionated things than hard observable scientific facts. Imagine a government using AI to shape opinion and claim there was no form of insurrection on Jan 6th. Thousands of websites and comments could quickly be fabricated to confirm that it was all made up. Burying the truth into obscurity.
Sounds like you're arguing against yourself, now.
