[liberationtech] Science is Poetry: an AI counter-offensive

Hi list,

Sharing here a project in recent development.

----

Science is Poetry is a tactical media response to an era of runaway AI, whose
webcrawlers are non-consensually scraping human-made content for use in
training their models. Concerned creators can use the project to protect their
content by linking to it somewhere in the landing page of their wiki, website
or blog. AI crawlers then encountering the link will be pulled off-site and
entrapped in a maze of babble, a new page generated for each page consumed,
forever.

Because the randomly generated nonsense may be used as training data,
introducing errors and ‘hallucinations’, Science is Poetry could be considered
to implement Poison-as-a-Service (PaaS).
