Because I also use AI, and I actually want the content from the site to show up for me, as well as other AI users.
More over, I actually pay for three different AI subscriptions, and use them a lot. I also think it’s fair that I pay for their services. I just want them to also pay for what they use.

All anti-bot measures are inherently flawed, and if you overdo it, your false positives cause real harm by excluding actual people from using your services.
Not as in “1 out of 1000 legit requests get blocked” but “you’re going to block 100% of some person’s requests.”
