The data presented shows prior the widespread use of bots or LLms people had already begun to decline participating in surveys. Perhaps some thought should be put as to why more people don't feel like doing so - are the surveys well designed or honest in intent ... last few years in my locale, those I've encountered were somewhat lacking in both those aspects.

I haven’t done a survey in 20 or 30 years. Too many dishonest online polls in saying upfront how long they were going to take. So they are left with a serious bias: survey takers who are desperately bored, or desperately poor, or now desperately non-human.

Pay people more is #3. I suggest she survey people about the ranking. I know what I'd vote for.
