Neil Clarke with an excellent overview about current techniques to block all the "AI" web scraping bots from your content, e.g. via robots.txt. The reasons for doing so are numerous:

“AI” companies think that we should have to opt-out of data-scraping bots that take our work to train their products. [...] These companies should be prevented from using data that they haven’t been given explicit consent for. Opt-out is problematic as it counts on concerned parties hearing about new or modified bots BEFORE their sites are targeted by them. That is simply not practical.[...] The online community is under no responsibility to help them create their products.
