How can we stop corporations from using Lemmy as a training dataset for AI?
Reddit third-party client ban closed user messages behind paywall. I think we the Lemmitors should stop AI training on us or at least monetise it (for our instances)
Sadly, you cannot. If you have a platform that's open for everyone to participate in, that includes bad actors.
You could attempt to mitigate this by having communities filled with bots just creating LLM content, so when they scrape the data they can't tell if it's human or not. And that would hurt their data set
It would be just a matter of time before they can distinguish between good and bad data; there are already AI that can do just that.
I'd like to do something like that on GitHub though:P
