Regardless of your views on AI, LLMs are going to be influential in the future. If you work to keep your content away from models, it's hard to see how you benefit.

25 years ago, if you had blocked the googlebot scraper because you resented google search, it would only have worked to marginalize the information you were offering up on the internet. Avoiding LLM training datasets will lead to similar outcomes.



I think this is a weak analogy.

What benefit is gained by allowing AI companies to train on your content? LLMs work on a token by token basis.


Depends on who you are and what your content is, but shutting yourself off is unlikely to benefit you.
