I made this point recently in a much more verbose form, but I want to reflect it briefly here, if you combine the vulnerability this article is talking about with the fact that large AI companies are most certainly stealing all the data they can and ignoring our demands to not do so the result is clear we have the opportunity to decisively poison future LLMs created by companies that refuse to follow the law or common decency with regards to privacy and ownership over the things we create with our own hands. Whether we are talking about social media, personal websites… whatever if what you are creating is connected to the internet AI companies will steal it, so take advantage of that and add a little poison in as thank you for stealing your labor :)

Not sure if the article covers it, but hypothetically, if one wanted to poison an LLM, how would one go about doing so?

That being said, sabotaging all future endeavors would likely just result in a soft monopoly for the current players, who are already in a position to cherry pick what they add. I wouldn’t be surprised if certain companies are already poisoning the well to stop their competitors tbh.

Opportunity? More like responsibility.

I’m convinced they’ll do it to themselves, especially as more books are made with AI, more articles, more reddit bots, etc. Their tool will poison its own well.
