    I listened to a podcast about bots no longer obeying ROBOTS.TXT files   
    and ingesting all of the web (copyrighted or otherwise)  -- in the name   
    of dystopia.   
      
    The internet used to be based on good manners and common courtesy. The   
    AI people seem to feel empowered to break societal norms for the   
    "betterment of mankind".   
      
    Ironic when OpenAI is suing other companies for training their AI on   
    content that OpenAI took disregarding copyright.
