Adam Demasi<p>The Apple Wiki blocks ~100k requests per week from AI bots. We have 51k articles and 290k edits. Before we blocked bots, we were seeing more like millions.</p><p>It’s also meant we’ve hurt legitimate bots that use our data, because we need to make broad guesses as to whether a request is good or bad.</p><p>I’ve been documenting the problems these bots are causing, over on Louis Rossmann’s wiki. I really wish I could do more. This is making me sad about the future of the web, because we may end up spending more of our time fending off bots, rather than working on the content those bots love us for.</p><p><a href="https://wiki.rossmanngroup.com/wiki/Artificial_intelligence#Unethical_website_scraping" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">wiki.rossmanngroup.com/wiki/Ar</span><span class="invisible">tificial_intelligence#Unethical_website_scraping</span></a></p><p><a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/ai" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ai</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/web" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>web</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/openweb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>openweb</span></a> <a href="https://hachyderm.io/tags/bots" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bots</span></a></p>
