So i'm not sure how I feel, but to play Devil's advocate --
If I know anything I create is just going to be hoovered up and input into somebody's AI model so I do 99% of the work and they get 99% of the profit, perhaps I'm much less likely to progress Science and useful Arts by creating content in the first place.
I fear an internet of signup walls and TOC agreements for everything, just to prevent crawlers that feed AI from soaking it all up.
