Wikipedia is struggling with voracious AI bot crawlers

That what these AI crawler builders should be doing. They should be downloading the wikipedia backup or whatever it is and running their own wikipedia locally. They can download an update once a day or however often the backup is updated. Wouldn't surprise me if it's some poor intern had to implement a bot, was fired or moved on, and it's just running with nobody maintaining it. All the while the C-suits are shovelling money into their pockets.
