Bots are currently scraping the internet for LLM training data at unprecedented rates[1][2][3], driving up costs and destabilizing public-facing websites. I want to talk about how this has been particularly difficult for wikis, and has gotten much worse in the last few months.
I could see maybe caching that and providing it to a not-clearly-human user if it is in cache. That lets someone do something like link to a particular version of a file in a discussion here on the Threadiverse. The first user loading it will cause it to be cached.
Sure. Its just the thousands of obscure page edit history pages that ai crawlers hit every hour that cause the problem.
