"Don't kill me"? You will not be spared! /jk

Serious now: IMO the wall we need isn't against AI itself but against corporations. Once you take commercialisation out of the equation, generative models stop being a big negative to become either a non-issue or a small positive.

It's funny you mentioned that, because I was thinking the exact same thing; could you make a network of, eg, .net/.org (non commercial) sites?

But I suspect allowing AI would allow pollution from commercial to non-commercial.

That's possible. Thinking on it, maybe you're right and we need walls against both. Even then I think the main issue is commerce, not AI itself.

My take would be a federation of simple web pages, using a new markup format (more complex than gemtext, but still way simpler than HTML+CSS), and where people were collectively able to kick hostile entities out. I'm not sure on how to do it, though, specially in a way that wouldn't be weak against Sybil attacks.
