From the article:

> For example, blocking content from future AI models could decrease a site's or a brand's cultural footprint if AI chatbots become a primary user interface in the future.

I would rather leave the internet entirely if AI chatbots become a primary user interface.

What's interesting about your statement is that if you knew they were chatbots, then by definition, they wouldn't be AI. e.g. they wouldn't have passed the Turing test.

I know what you're saying, and totally agree. Unfortunately the term "AI" is now meaningless.

True enough, but one doesn't need to know whether they are Chatbots. In fact, one doesn't even have to have ever heard of AI/ChatGPT to know that something fundamnetally inhuman and strange were going on. If a person woke up from a coma after Chatbots had taken over the internet, they would immediately notice something very strange and machine-like about the whole experience.

That's not what AI means. Also chatgpt can beat the Turing test often enough.

Complaining about overloading the word "AI" is like complaining about the term "Cloud". Might as well move past it.

Why? That would imply that they are pretty good for most things - better than what we have now.

[vouaobrasil]

Absolutely not. That would imply that Chatbots are an optimal solution where the optimality criteria are short-term financial gains for mega-enterprises and the maladaptive instincts of humanity in the unnatural situation of being forced into a highly technological world.

Sugary cereals and desserts have taken over much of snacking today, doesn't mean it's a good thing.
