Hi, I'm building a personal website and I don't want it to be used to train AI. In my robots.txt file I blocked:

  • ChatGPT-User
  • GPTBot
  • Google-Extended
  • FacebookBot

What bots should I also add? Are there any other ways to block AI bots?

IMPORTANT: I don't want to block search engine crawlers, only bots that are used to train AI.

Mostly the hype and because artists and creators are being hurt by its existence.

I feel as though using AI is a cop-out. If I want to do something good, I also want to be proud of it. So I would rather not take that away from myself by doing it with AI. However, progress marches on, and I am neither an expert nor an authority on the subject. Asking someone like myself that question is nearly a trap. If I tell you that Generative AI is a bubble, like cryptocurrency and the Metaverse, that is just my gut feeling.

How about a bubble like the internet? 90% of dotcoms failed in the 90s but the internet is alive and strong today. AI is just a tool, and from my experience an extremely useful one.

I get that argument. Perhaps the fact that I'm a professor influences my thinking. And, since we are in a privacy community, something like ChatGPT and privacy don't mix.

Agreed that privacy can be a concern. Ideally it will be possible to run LLMs locally in the near future, but we'll see.
