> Do you think that there is $25 of value in the creation of your blog, to say nothing of value that AI may be able to extract from it?

I think the more pertinent question is: Can an AI company determine the value of that content automatically without seeing it? Because if they can’t, why would they pay for it?

If they have lots of reasons to believe it could be relevant due to requests for content by name or reference, as well as citations and other knowledge graph links, I think they could run some kind of A/B test to see what the market will bear based on what they estimate the crawls per billing period would be.

If they won't pay for it, they can also kindly fuck off and not crawl my blog. Both are fine outcomes for me.
