Ironically, AI is fast becoming the death of, and best source of information about the web. By training on internet data, it likely has the internal capacity to tell you about web content from lost links. It will also likely be able to fill in the gaps of lost links, in cases where the original link content is still present, but has moved. Expect links to increasingly break as content creators employ tactics to intentionally obfuscate their content to avoid it being read and used for AI
