Google, killing one of its products because their executives make shit decisions? Unheard of.
This is pure gut instinct, but I suspect this is gonna prompt an uptick in Google crawlers getting blocked. Mainly because Google just removed any real reason for people not to block them.
nah, not yet, imo. reasons: you overestimate how much & how many people care, and the complexities of doing such blocks well
I run the hosting of some small (by global standards) media setups and I’ve floated crawler defense there and had fairly little bite so far despite the issues the crawlers have caused. engagement brain is still extremely fucking prevalent
using it to source data in the meantime. I can tell you with absolute certainty that openai lies about its sourcing
What if we burned the Library of Alexandria, but the scrolls were printed on money?
if one presumes the money is gold and thus the scrolls were thin-film heavy metals, aerosolisation of that would explain quite a bit of the current situation

gold is pretty much nontoxic, definitely bulk (gold teeth anyone?), maybe as nanoparticles. gold compounds can be, like any other heavy metal, but it’s so inert that these won’t form in air under any normal conditions. lead will get oxidized much more easily, and if you’re riffing on leaded gasoline then it’s lead oxide particles that made it work in the first place, so it’s already in bioavailable form, and full brain damage is only seen some 20 years down the road
