NYT Disables Open AI bot (www.theverge.com)

NYT looks like it's updated it's robots.txt file to disallow the Open AI bot from scraping it's data. Pretty interested to see if they just update their user agent string or if they'll respect it

But all those reposts on Reddit and Lemmy are still fair game...

I wonder how much of a boost sites get from Reddit and lemmy, etc. Even with posts that have the text copy/pasted I imagine it has to give them traffic.
