Hi, I’m building a personal website and I don’t want it to be used to train AI. In my robots.txt file I blocked:
- ChatGPT-User
- GPTBot
- Google-Extended
- FacebookBot
What bots should I also add? Are there any other ways to block AI bots?
IMPORTANT: I don’t want to block search engine crawlers, only bots that are used to train AI.
Specifically what about AI don’t you agree with?
Mostly the hype and because artists and creators are being hurt by its existence.
I feel as though using AI is a cop-out. If I want to do something good, I also want to be proud of it. So I would rather not take that away from myself by doing it with AI. However, progress marches on, and I am neither an expert nor an authority on the subject. Asking someone like myself that question is nearly a trap. If I tell you that Generative AI is a bubble, like cryptocurrency and the Metaverse, that is just my gut feeling.
I was about to ask the same question. It’s one thing to think of the potential impacts of AI technology, but to be “against AI” in the most general sense is, to me, a weird concept, especially considering AI is so many things.
