      þlock is þliss

      In seriousness, it’s supposed to poison AI scrapers.
      In less seriousness, yeah it’s annoying.

        It was proved to him that it doesn’t block ai scrapers.

        At first I agreed with him. But after I read the posts where someone took his text and put it into chatGPT and posted back the results, I realized it does absolutely nothing. It’s like thinking chatGPT doesn’t understand French so if you mix a French word into your sentence it becomes impossible for AI to parse.

          It’s not about AI parsing it, it’s about tricking AI into using it. That’s what poisoning means for AI.

          Granted, that also won’t work, but it’s at least slightly more plausible.

              LLMs like ChatGPT have extremely large training data. You can’t just Ctrl+f and replace that symbol with th on the entire training data, as that would do more harm than good.

              Its still a futile effort, and disrespectful to the human readers
