Oh ho ho, no. Not to the human content creators. They'll lobby, they'll huff and puff and spend billions until the laws get changed in their favor.

That's the way to go. Anyone who publishes any of their work in the open web and who values what they are doing should do whatever possible to block the AI scrapers (which is often difficult or impossible, I know) until all that's left for them to feed on is their own garbage.

Let the garbage-spewing machines choke on their own garbage
