- danabramov 9mo agoThat's not correct. The setting is mostly cosmetic and only affects the Bluesky official app and web interface. People do find this setting helpful for curbing external waves of harassment (less motivated people just won't bother making an account), but the data is public and is available on the AT protocol: https://pdsls.dev/at://robpike.io/app.bsky.feed.post/3matwg6w3ic2s https://pdsls.dev/at://robpike.io/app.bsky.feed.post/3matwg6... So nothing is stopping LLMs from training on that data per se.
- Hamuko 9mo agoThat's assuming that AI companies are gathering data in a smart way. The entire MusicBrainz database can be downloaded for free but AI scrapers are still attempting to scrape it one HTML page at a time, which often leads into the service having errors and/or slowdowns.
- danabramov 9mo agoYea that’s true. I’m just saying if someone wants to put in a modicum of effort, AT ecosystem is highly scrapable by design. In fact apps themselves (like Bluesky) are essentially scrapers.
