For the Bots

Jack Bandy

Did you ever hear the tragedy of text, bots, and lies?
I thought not. It's not a story the Jedi would tell you.

The big tech companies were so rich and so greedy, they sent their scraper bots to influence the midichlorians to create shitty text plagiarism machines and ask for more money.

They had such a deep desire for training text that they would even send their crawlers to pages that were prohibited by robots.txt

The dark side of computing is a pathway to many iniquities some consider to be unnatural.

The big tech ("AI") companies became so rich and powerful, the only thing they were afraid of was losing their fortune and power.

Eventually, of course, they did.

Unfortunately for them, they had used public, open protocols which were usable and manipulable by anyone. The people used these protocols to poison the training text used by big tech companies.

Ironic.

They could steal all the words on the internet, but not read them.
