Any scummy, dumpster fire Corpos will certainly put a rush on acquiring enough training data to make artists useless to them in the future. These mind blind, money-grubbing bastards are actively chasing that quick buck before it comes crashing down on them. Grab the bag and don’t get beat up with that regulation ruler!
There are already some fuckwits (Apple, Anthropic, Nvidia, Salesforce) who actively scrapped content from YouTube titles and videos; data laundering that stolen content, but if you prompt their AI just right, you can see the direct influence the stolen data has on whatever the LLM generates.

In mid-June, Forbes reported finding its content within Perplexity’s Pages tool with minimal attribution. Pages allows Perplexity users to curate content and share it with others. Ars Technica sister publication Wired later made similar claims, also noting suspicious traffic patterns from IP addresses likely linked to Perplexity that were ignoring robots.txt exclusions. Perplexity was also found to be manipulating its crawling bots’ ID string to get around website blocks.
So hang on, they were caught stealing content, and now they’re trying to sign up the people they stole content from and get them to pay? If that’s not the textbook definition of racketeering and extortion I don’t know what is.
