Mode collapse, an issue where AI models over-produce the most common output, can occur when models are trained on AI-generated data. This phenomenon arises because models, when faced with a choice between generating a common output well or a rare output poorly, will prioritize the common one. Subsequent models trained on these biased outputs further amplify the effect, leading to a collapse towards the modal output. AI
