I remember playing around with Writesonic in my days of spammy seo tactics (some of my products weren't allowed on marketplaces & advertising platforms due to hazmat products so..). Often times I would see my own product descriptions nearly verbatim in the output.

Further, I can see a day where someone like Reddit will close off or license their data to llms. No doubt they are losing traffic right now.
