If the site literally refuses to send you data unless you're logged in then it doesn't matter what wrapper you've got around the empty shell.

You can lead a horse to water.

The point of Spez's plan is to make it so you would need an account for that, though.

Reddit is still one of the biggest social media sites on the internet. News about it is important to a lot of people. You're demanding that everyone else conform to your preferences.

It's funny, way back in the mists of history Reddit's original plan was very similar to the Fediverse's. They opened the source for their servers and had plans for how it could interoperate with other independent "reddits".

Just having them be comparable is great, I've been very appreciative of China for keeping open weights cutting edge but monopolies are never good in the long run. Bring on the competition.

A bunch of their data centers just inexplicably exploded and burned down so whatever prominence they might have had until now is probably going to fade a bit more.

Yeah, the standards for all that are still new and shifting so I usually just leave it up to the AI itself to figure out how it wants to organize the data. It's the one that knows where its harness tells it to find stuff, after all.

Somewhere in the NSA someone is going "damnit! They found that one too!?"

And now everything will go back to normal and people in China will stop using AI.

Right?

Well, "people" and "humans" aren't the same thing. One's a subset of the other.

Problem with getting too philosophical here is that someday soon the bots might also count as a subset. Then things get really complicated.

I imagine my first task for the agent will be to tell it to compile a skill file from all the documentation I'm able to direct it to. I was just hoping that maybe someone had already done that to give it a leg up.
