HoboBen	Dunno what your opinion is on ChatGPT is ethically. Figure, if we post here, it's public, and ChatGPT has as much right as any body to lurk the forum. But it's gonna package up what we say and regurgitate it without attribution and destroy the environment at the same time. And it's slurping up more data than anybody else. Do you block it? -=-=- blog \| work \| code \| more code

Jayenkai	I don't block it. But discuss whether I should. To be fair, all the various AI's would have scraped the site half-a-dozen times each, by now, even long before it was a "thing" to avoid. Bing's ALWAYS scraping stuff, and they're chucking all that into CoPilot, and Google Google the Google Google, so the only "real" option is to pretty much block EVERYTHING. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''
