Abstract

Landmark study showing that indiscriminate use of model-generated content in training causes irreversible defects in resulting models, where tails of original content distribution disappear. Model collapse is a degenerative learning process where models forget improbable events over time. Demonstrates this across LLMs, VAEs, and GMMs.
