It would have to become law in every country in order to work.
Piracy is also illegal in most of the countries of the world. The new id requirement for porn is also working well in some countries as I heard. And eu cookie law and gdpr were just intended to be one more popup on every website, that was the goal.
I'm really happy lawmakers thinking about the internet, I'm sure it will be better executed this time.
Are you a bot? 🤖
I keep getting accused of being one by online strangers, colleagues, and friends, so ... maybe.
So if I make a site that always sends the 'machine generated' flag, my site won't get aggressively scraped to death at the cost of not being indexed? Seems like a win.
We can't even get websites to comply with the GDPR and there's actual laws about it, this is literally nothing
Yeah, I'mma doubt this is gonna do anything good in the long run, as much as I would want it to. How would the computer be able to tell if the content of the website was written using AI but the header says it's AI free?
It also sounds like a great way to show AI crawlers where to go to steal information and steal web page contents to feed into training data.
Its also a great way of scaring away potential crawlers due to the threat of model collapse.
And one for AI crawlers please.
