I get a higher percentage of my newsletter traffic from ChatGPT than from Facebook. And AIs now regularly refer to my frameworks and ideas because they are in the training data. I would be very annoyed if blocking AIs was something that was turned on by default by my provider.
For everyone asking about how I get traffic, I have no strategy. I write my own stuff & post what is interesting to me without optimizing for anything in particular. I have a big audience for a variety of reasons (book, years on social media), so I don't think my advice is useful
I inadvertently ended up playing a role in a complex discussion about Cloudflare's AI blocking when my point was much more on the value of AI accessing content. Going to delete.
