Well that's it for trusting Wikipedia for information. I already knew to be skeptical of Wikipedia edits, but going forward Wikipedia will be edited by AI bots with little to no human intervention. It will just be an entire shit show of hallucinations or bias opinions based on whatever training data the AI is fed.

AI is going to send us back to the stone age. AI will create the next great war as the working population deals with massive job and income loss. In 20 years we will have a generation who are functionally illiterate and won't know a shred of history because nobody will trust any information as factual. Technology will be lost due to nobody being qualified to manage it. AI is going to make a society of idiots.

Someone in the elite classes probably sees that as yet another benefit. Much easier to control a society of idiots than a society of well-informed, well-educated folks. Granted, with the way things are going I think we'll be finding an excuse to eliminate a whole lot of people well before we have to worry about the AI takeover, but even if we don't proactively do that, it may be the end result. "For the greater good," will be translated into, "for the good of the few uber-wealthy," and the rest of us will b

You have got that backwards...

That's... not what's going on here. Wikipedia is licensing it's content for these AI companies to crawl for training their models. Presumably to, at minimum, pay for the bandwidth they're using.

Because that would make their blatant theft of human knowledge be even more obvious copyright infringement, I guess... At least now they're paying for it.

Bandwidth is cheaper than storage. Apparently.

Wikipedia has terms of service that means you give up limited rights when you contribute to it. As such, they decide whether AI gets access to it.

Being a free service to the general public, it is totally reasonably to charge special users to use it.

This is a great way to fund the the general public's use, especially considering how the AI community has in general disregarded authors rights. Better to charge them up front.

Agreed. And without that deal, the slop-makers would just steal everything anyways.

Being a free service to the general public, it is totally reasonably to charge special users to use it.

More importantly, AI companies are going to scrape the site regardless of it being allowed or not. What this does is gives them firm legal standing that companies doing so are causing them financial losses.

Otherwise the AI pushers would just steal everything and cause damage to availability on top of that.

Wikipedia is completely unbiased! It’s crowd-sourced! And the crowd only uses approved sources:

With Wikipedia, our AI’s are guaranteed to be benign overlords!

Sleep well.

A fan of "doing your own research" I take it.
