> Nobody is going to "generate training data" if they get precisely nothing out of it.
Everyone that has a job and gets paid for it generates (with the appropriate monitoring) some kind of data that could be training data in the course of doing their job. (And doesn’t raise the issue of “if they get precisely nothing out of it”.)
Once no humans have jobs because AIs are better at them (should that occur), then the AIs themselves will be the best source of training data for the next generation.
There are many problems to address with AI; “Where is training data going to come from,” however, is nowhere on the list. It is a distraction from real issues.
