Artificial intelligence (AI) is intelligence demonstrated by machines, unlike the natural intelligence displayed by humans and animals, which involves consciousness and emotionality. The distinction between the former and the latter categories is often revealed by the acronym chosen.

Yeah, but if the thing is that I don't want my content to be sent to an AI? Your idea is very cool, but be sure to implement a way to detect if the user that posted the comment/post doesn't have a #nobot tag in its profile description.
This is an excellent idea, and I'm not sure why people downvoted you. The bot library I used doesn't support requesting the user profile, but I'm sure it can be fetched directly from the API. I will look into implementing it!
Thanks, it's a good thing the creator isn't as uptight as the comments.
What library did you use?
I implemented it. The feature will be available right from the start. The bot will reply this if the user has disabled it:

At this point you may as well not comment or post anything on the internet if you are worried about it, the horse has already left the gate…
Just because some companies are abusive doesn't mean you have to be too. Let's try, at best, to respect the fundamentals.
Ya fair enough, if it can be avoided by one person then sure why not, it’s kinda like climate change though, one person isn’t really doing anything when it comes to a global scale, it’s corporations and large industry that are the problems, same with AI anything corporate or government controlled, well once again it doesn’t matter they won’t respect that
I’m a realist me posting this comment and basically anything I do on the internet, I see it as, it’s out there I can’t expect it to stay private, it sucks but that’s how it is
yeah, though a better analogy would maybe be it's all the people of the world working together to progress society so that we have the tools required to allow everyone to live fulfilling and comfortable lives but certain people in comfortable positions don't care about the billions of people in poverty who would hugely benefit from access to advanced AI able to give medical advice, education, and lifestyle benefits so they obstinately try and stand in the way of progress refusing to help and selfishly guarding their worthless 'intellectual property' out of a weird sense of self-importance and greed.
The in long run they'll make no difference but it's still distressing that they would act like this.
Just because the theives have broken into your kitchen doesn't mean you have to make them breakfast.
If you create a post on a public facing website, you give up your right prevent the content from being sent to AI.
Even if the tldr bot isn't sending your content to AI, these AI models are ingesting everything on the internet.
No. Intellectual property. And that's why licenses exist.
And btw, I publish on my own server, my property, so if I don't want and state that an AI scans its content, in an automated way, it simply doesn't have the right.
And I'm sure these AI models will respect your wishes.
That's an easy thing to figure out when you created both the comment and the server hosting it, but what if I'm posting content to your server. Who is the owner and who has the right to say what can and cannot be done with the content? I can ask the admin not to let my content be scraped, copied, or whatever else, but once I hit "submit" can I really still call it "my" content and claim ownership?

If your eyes scan the content of this post, in a manual way, you simply don't have the right.
Do you see the problem here?
