No. Opt-out is exactly the wrong approach. Instead consider a flag indicating that "I'm OK with mu source being used for training AI models." i.e. opt-in.

- ghaff 5y agoThe problem is that defaults are very powerful. I could equally well argue that the Internet Archive shouldn't archive my website unless I give them opt-in permission. Of course, if that were the case, the Internet Archive effectively wouldn't exist. ADDED: To be clear, it may be fine to say that making certain things opt-in means that other things that many might value can't exist.
- l-lousy 5y agoThe counterpoint here is that the internet archive isn’t a for profit service which is claiming exact reproductions of other people’s content as “new work”
- bluefirebrand 5y ago> The problem is that defaults are very powerful This isn't the problem, it's the whole point. Things need to be made opt-in because we want there to be a meaningful barrier to companies using data that does not belong to them in order to make money.
