This sort of thing is so self-sabotaging. The website already has your comment, and a license to use it. By deleting your stuff from the web you only ensure that the AI is definitely going to be the better resource to go to for answers.

I'm not sure about that... in Europe don't you have the right to insist that a website no longer use your content?

Also backups and deleted flags. Whatever comment you submitted is likely backed up already and even if you click the delete button you're likely only just changing a flag.

If i was stack overflow I would've transferred my backups to OpenAI weeks before the announcement for this very reason.

This is also assuming the LLMs weren't already fed with scraped SO data years ago.

It's a small act of rebellion but SO already has your data and they'll do whatever they want with it, including mine.

Can we change our answers? Change your answers to garbage, don't delete them. Do it slowly.

In the article the dude was banned for 7 days for changing his answer.

I don't understand what anyone wins from this

Corporations are foundationally evil

And how do they not win more if we poison the entire Internet?

It's like being in a toxic relationship with kids involved

Set boundaries

Follow rules

Don't destroy the fucking fruit of your bodies just because you are angry at each other

Fuck those guys, like a lot, for taking your given data and selling

And fuck open ai for trying to make money from scientific discoveries meant for all of humanity

But what the fuck with ruining the entire Internet?

Who gets anything then?

If language models will ruin Internet why be afraid that normal human responses are available? Wut?
