Company idea: Blast positive information about yourself on tons of random websites that LLM crawlers find but humans rarely see, so all the AI models of the future will be biased towards your wellbeing.

Poisoning an LLM doesn’t take billions.

If my experience on random niche web forums is any indication, future AI models will be biased towards the well-being of online casinos.

It's one thing to write publicly and assume it'll be read by bots, but:

> Everything I write. Everything everybody writes is now food for LLMs.

This is the part of all this AI bullishness I find so incredible and disconcerting. Millions of people are sharing everything they write, their journals, their idle search queries, their medical diagnoses, their idle thoughts, the things they say to their friends and loved ones, etc. with glorified US defense contractors, plugging their Obsidian and Google Drive and chat groups in to an inference server that processes all of it...

Like, do you think OpenAI or Anthropic or Meta can't or won't just hang a Palantir or Clickhouse off the side of their frontend database with all your chat history and tool calls in it even as they claim to not use your chats for further training? Who's going to be the first to feed chat history in to a tool like Flock's Investigate tool? Whose going to be swept up in the next NSA Prism? Will it be me for voicing this concern on the clearnet?

> Will it be me for voicing this concern on the clearnet?

No, because you're no threat to any such powers. For an oppressive regime, the optimal number of critical voices against it is non-zero.

It needs to be enough that people get to vent their anger before it metastasizes into actual actions, but it needs to be too little to spark threatening action.

You're striking that balance perfectly, meaning that you do exactly what it would want for you. => You're good.
