From the post: “It is important to us that we don’t generate inaccurate content that contributes to the spread of misinformation on the Internet, so the content we generate is real and related to scientific facts, just not relevant or proprietary to the site being crawled.”
Okay, why should I care if a crawler that is clearly doing something it shouldn’t receives misinformation?
- bithavoc 2y agoI guess if the crawlers can’t actually see the trap, misinformation would be attributed to your website in case model responses expose content attribution tags to end users.
- dns_snek 2y agoLLMs already make up citations, everyone would assume it was just the model spewing nonsense citations.
- mentalgear 2y agoThat's actually a good strategy. It avoids adding more false information in the infosphere while de-incentivising the crawlers from returning to the site (since they don't find the information they are looking for there).

- exeldapp 2y agoI could imagine more sophisticated crawlers might be able to detect false information and then avoid those pages, but maybe that's more far fetched than how it comes across in my mind.
- __MatrixMan__ 2y agoBecause people will later vote based on that misinformation.
