keep away AI bots from scanning websites

Specifically: Scrapers operated by individuals rather than big, important companies. On one hand, this significantly cuts down on the volume of scraping. On the other, it restricts control of the AI market to a select class of people who are important enough to get by the bot protection.

The root problem, obviously, is that the "AI market" is generally directed at that select class.

AI bad or good?

AI good. Non-rich people bad.
