I think this is too pessimistic. There are always archivists and tinkerers who keep legacy technologies alive. Look at people today making C64 emulators, dot matrix printers. Then there are websites like archive.org.

I believe the bigger problem will be dealing with so much information, it will be hard to catalogue. And the problem of nuance, where future archivists won’t know whether something was AÍ generated, a shitpost, or otherwise false.
