AI haters build tarpits to trap and trick AI scrapers that ignore robots.txt
Article is a couple months old but I was unaware of tarpits in existence against AI.
I mean, you don't have to wait for them to ignore instructions, just put these traps everywhere.
It should be illegal for bots to ignore robots.txt tbh, like fuck AI bros in general but the ones who go out of their way to scrape sites that make it clear they don't want to be scraped... Hope their shitty LLMs get poisoned beyond saving. And that it costs them a fortune in electricity bills. ¯(ツ)_/¯
It is illegal to derive work from copyrighted material without permission, yet there they are, doing it...
Or Facebook, outright pirating books for their AI ...
I am a proud AI hater
Someone build an intentionally rogue AI. A Hunter Killer that seeks out other AI and destroys them.
Think Rabids from Cyberpunk.
A Datakrash is an inevitability. It will happen. But if we do it early. Before the world becomes too networked. That might just save us a lot of lives and hardship down the road.
Is AI Accelerationism a thing yet? Cuz it should be.
I'm pretty sure that's what these tarpits are. They set a trap for AI bots and if they fall into it, they are essentially killed by eating the bot owners' resources and by making their output worthless.
Setting the halting problem against AI.

Halt And Cath Fire.
