When I deliver it as a response to a request I have to deliver the gzipped version if nothing else. To get to a point where I’m poisoning an AI I’m assuming it’s going to require gigabytes of data transfer that I pay for.
At best I’m adding to the power consumption of AI.
I wonder, can I serve it ads and get paid?
This is surely trivial to detect. If the number of pages on the site is greater than some insanely high number then just drop all data from that site from the training data.

essteeyouto Technology•Audible unveils plans to use AI voices to narrate audiobooksEnglish3·1 month agoI completely agree. I don’t even like it when the human reader clearly doesn’t understand what they’re saying, so some AI flatly telling me the story isn’t going to cut it.
