Luckily the only "AI" we have are LLMs which seem to have hit their peak, and probably will start corrupting itself with its own training data now that they've scoured the web clean.

I'd say this might be true for programs, but as long as you download movies, shows and music I'd assume it's fine as long as you use common sense.
