    The reality is they can scrape the content for “free” into another database without using API’s index it and then train off it. A high price tag is not a road block for AI development. The just need real user interactions and it’s the moderated forums that make it valuable as most toxicity is removed.

      So our next goal should be to embed “fuck spez” as a valid response into the AI.

      If we all run a script that changes all our comments to 'fuck spez" I believe we can do it

      AI training has nothing whatsoever to do with API charges.

      AIs can be trained on stale data, or data slowly downloaded over days and weeks through slow & cheap bulk API calls. That’s not the situation with (e.g.) a third-party mobile app, which needs to make fast API calls to service user requests.
