    Writers & researchers tend to use sources that appear near the top of Google search results. As a result, a small selection of ideas is disproportionately replicated, obscuring all the thousands of unluckier perspectives. Intellectual inbreeding is withering our discourse.

        Yes, but this is not new. Writer and scholars want recognition and don't want their work to be ignored. "Why write about footnotes if you don't want to be a footnote yourself?" They may care deeply about those obscure ideas, and still traffic in pablum out of pure necessity.

        Using common language is the primitive example of how this is useful. Invention is about finding the right answers, research is about communicating with a community. If you’re not using common references in a communication you better be creating something that speaks for itself

        Yes, also the belief that if it’s not returned by Google, an article, book, paper is not valuable. SEO culture optimizes discoverability and distribution at the cost of surfacing original thoughts.

        True, but does such writing & research actually move the world? Most content is prob fluff with negligible cultural/historical impact. If so, then better question is how much the few seminal, world-changing people, books, movies, research, etc. are biased by the selection effect.

        There was intellectual inbreeding even before Google and a small selection of ideas always dominated. But discourse did not wither. Why are we assuming that because of Google things are worse? Google also permits you to sample and access a wide range of perspectives.
