what are these bots doing, harvesting information?
A.I. such as ChatGPT need lots of inputs to train the models.
Harvesting blindly tons of websites if one way to cheaply build a base.
They absolutely don't care about copyright or intellectual property. The mentality is "
if it's on Internet, it's free (to use)".
Cloud business model are based on traditional usage where you store your data with them and access when needed.
Uploading data to the cloud is free but they will charge you for downloading.
Problem with A.I. in the cloud is that they siphon huge amounts of data to the cloud (free), crunch their models for long periods of times (paying for CPU) but then the output is tiny in comparison.
Clouds might have to reconsider their business cases, they are basically subsiding A.I. companies right now.
