When A.I.’s Output Is a Threat to A.I. Itself
www.nytimes.com
As A.I.-generated data becomes harder to detect, it’s increasingly likely to be ingested by future A.I., leading to worse results.

    My takeaway from this is:

    1. Get a bunch of AI-generated slop and put it in a bunch of individual .htm files on my webserver.
    2. When my bot user agent filter is invoked in Nginx, instead of returning 444 and closing the connection, return a random .htm of AI-generated slop (instead of serving the real content)
    3. Laugh as the LLMs eat their own shit
    4. ???
    5. Profit

      I might just do this. It would be fun to write a quick python script to automate this so that it keeps going forever. Just have a link that regens junk then have it go to another junk html file forever more.

        Also send this junk to Reddit comments to poison that data too because fuck Spez?

            That’s a little different than what I mean.

            I mean to run a single bot from a script which interacts a normal human amount during normal human times within a configurable time zone which is acting as a real person just to poison their dataset.
