While catchy that headline kind of misses the point. It should be "Corporations are overwhelming websites with their hunger for AI data". They're the ones doing it and corporations are by far the most damaging non-human persons (especially since they are formed nowadays to abstract away liability for the damage they cause).
This is not some new enemy "bots". This is the same old non-human legal persons that polluted our physical world repeating things in the digital. Bots run by actual human persons are not the problem.
- Analemma_ 1y agoI'm not sure that's true. As hardware gets cheaper, you're going to see more and more people wanting to build+deploy their own personal LLMs to avoid the guardrails/censorship (or just the cost) of the commercial ones, and that means scraping the internet themselves. I suspect the amount of scraping that's coming from individuals or small projects is going to increase dramatically in the months/years to come.
