Why wouldn't they? You don't even have to be logged in to view them.

You should never assume anything you post publicly online is at all private or hidden from any search engine/AI.

Could you imagine someone legitimately looking some shit up and having trash from lemmy.ml be the result?

The world isn’t really for that level of misinformation.

[-] Schmoo@slrpnk.net 17 points 1 day ago

As if the general level of misinformation online isn't already several orders of magnitude worse than anything on lemmy.ml.

misinformation > smug and arrogant misinformation

[-] mycodesucks@lemmy.world 13 points 23 hours ago

I don't know about that... smug and arrogant at least turns a lot of people off.

Regular misinformation flies under the radar.

@OwOarchist @Rhoeri Unlike AI crawlers, search engines generally respect robots.txt and noindex tags, which will tell them not to index or surface those pages in search results. This is how fediverse profiles which have chosen to opt out of internet search indexes do so.

You should still assume things you post in public with no auth required are public of course.

Does robots.txt really work in the fediverse? At least on lemmy, the content can be retrieved on different hosts, all of which have different robots.txt files. Unless it is somehow "baked" into the protocol.

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
