Please add an anti AI-scraping txt to csdb

I’ve noticed csdb has been scraped by ‘AI’ tools already, up to 300+ images.
I’d love to see a preventing solution added to csdb, as shown here: AI.txt.

It seems like a small effort.
Personally I’d hate to see my stuff being fed to the tech bros machinery. I hope someone can take care of this.

Cheers,
Sander

How can you see if/which images have been scraped?

The search is a bit slow / buggy.

Interesting, thanks for providing the link!

I checked the network traffic and it seems that it is looking at the domain in question for images. At least there was some traffic from my browser towards the searched domain although I did not have the page open. For the images listed I'm not sure if they are already in a dataset, since the purpose of the page seems also to claim a domain and protect a selection of images from being trained, given that the AI-training person respects the Do not rain registry.

I wonder if the page will tell where a particular image exists already in a training dataset, that would be interesting.

think the cat is out of the bag regarding anything online.

best go back to a none obvious searching / farming format to at least slow it down.

if there are tricks you can include to trip it up even better. a well known comedian who flogs booze said that, not so long ago.

actually it should simply tell google, and every other crawler, to fuck off and die as well

Banish all preview bitmaps. Write a (java)script that would use Vice to live render a realtime preview from prg/d64? This even possible?

Hope action can be taken.
I'm seriously considering removing all my screenshots for the time being.
I did not consent to this :)

this is a good request, I already implemented it on xparty.net.
though I doubt it will have any impact: the ai.txt file has never been requested. nefarious scrapers will not care about a txt file.

As far as I'm concerned, any measure that makes it harder for the AI bastards to replenish their ammo supplies is welcome.
