@leah And here's the thing, they're scraping and surfacing content that's our IP. They're literally stealing from us and redirecting traffic from our business.This is definitely criminal conduct, even if we don't have laws that mark it as such.
@leah I work for a large software firm with huge amounts of online content - which the AI firms have publicly said they trained on. We've since indicated through our various mechanisms they are not allowed to scrape content... But they very clearly are. We just moved to g4 analytics and started removing bot traffic from our metrics. It was nearly 70% of our traffic, so your numbers are dead on.
@cstross Yeah, I'm also a type II. Oz helped with my A1C for a year, until my doc kept upping the dose. The side effects kept getting worse for me, until I had to stop. My endocrinologist and primary care doctor want me back on it - and for sure I wish it was like the first year - but the second one and the higher doses just... scared me to point where I can't make myself take it.
@cstross yeah, but ozempic increases risks of optic nerve disease. Plus there's risk of pancreatic failure and a bunch of other things. It's not a cureall. Personally, they never helped for weight loss for me, I had horrible side effects, and now I'm scared as more and more research is coming out saying that they have no idea how any of the semaglutide drugs work.
@blogdiva This would be such a great movie. Seriously.

The fact that there’s a Highway To Hell but only a Stairway To Heaven says a lot about anticipated traffic numbers.
