Well, there it is, enshitification inbound.
There's no enshittification. This is just WMF (not even the community) allowing AI to train on Wikipedia's data. And FYI, most Wikipedias strongly discourage the use of LLMs or all AI in general.
It's just WMF selling the work of unpaid volunteers to the worst grifters on the planet for a quick buck.
The enshitification will ensue. And having Microsoft training on people's work to profit off of it is fucking horrible too.
I wonder how many full copies of wiki have been downloaded and are just waiting to be deployed on a new host so collectively we can all just dump the AI from microslop
I will be downloading it for sure
