imo the core quote of that Wired story xyzzzz linked:
A plum domain’s initial benefit—a strong reputation with Google and a built-in audience—dwindles quickly as Vujo populates it with content primarily designed to snare search engines rather than interest people. AI content is successful not because it is replacing the work of human writers but because it coasts on the value created by their past labor.

Private equity firms like Bain Capital have long been using the same basic strategy as that Serbian clickbait guy. They buy companies with classic established brand names associated with reliable quality, degrade the products heavily, cut prices moderately, revive profits based on gulling customers into thinking they are getting the same quality the brand always delivered in the past, but cheaper, then dump the company before the public gets wise to the changes. Main difference is that the web sites he buys are small potatoes. They don't even have pension funds to raid.

I saw a job listing at LinkedIn for people to take photos per their assignment, with each one that is accepted earning them $1. The company is apparently building a database of images to use for AI, with no copyright issues.

After months of resisting, Air Canada was forced to give a partial refund to a grieving passenger who was misled by an airline chatbot inaccurately explaining the airline's bereavement travel policy.
On the day Jake Moffatt's grandmother died, Moffat immediately visited Air Canada's website to book a flight from Vancouver to Toronto. Unsure of how Air Canada's bereavement rates worked, Moffatt asked Air Canada's chatbot to explain.
The chatbot provided inaccurate information, encouraging Moffatt to book a flight immediately and then request a refund within 90 days. In reality, Air Canada's policy explicitly stated that the airline will not provide refunds for bereavement travel after the flight is booked. Moffatt dutifully attempted to follow the chatbot's advice and request a refund but was shocked that the request was rejected.
Moffatt tried for months to convince Air Canada that a refund was owed, sharing a screenshot from the chatbot that clearly claimed:
If you need to travel immediately or have already travelled and would like to submit your ticket for a reduced bereavement rate, kindly do so within 90 days of the date your ticket was issued by completing our Ticket Refund Application form.
Unhappy with this resolution, Moffatt refused the coupon and filed a small claims complaint in Canada's Civil Resolution Tribunal.

I can't imagine the AI people won't find a way around data poisoning as it currently is, but if the data poisoning people keep at it and keep finding new ways to poison the data, it could become an interesting arms race.

If I understand their aim correctly, it’s obfuscation. I assume it’ll work in the sense that nobody will bother to mitigate the obfuscation. Nevertheless, I don’t think it matters from a “foundational model” perspective, unless model architectures dramatically change, as performance has been seeing diminishing returns from increasingly large dataset sizes.

Me: Compare and contrast the Gregory Zulu 55 Backpack and Gregory Tetrad 60L Travel Pack.ChatGPT4: In a significant area of customer support, ergonomics, and subjective nature of 'goods', each bag conjures a fable of a time and place. Gregory's Zulu 55 is a guild-like lilt to the green-gilded high book way of state and yearn, while the Tetrad 60L conceives more of a 'pathless traveled' countenance with gnarls and swathes to the dunes and granes or the chip kiosk and the long, drawn shutter. Each has a letter of love for the open blue, but their chant is unique to their locker and book.Me: wtf
