The left path is better because if you adopt some privacy hygiene when using the internet, you can be more sure that these AI companies won't scrape your sensitive info. Whatever data they scrape from places like here is going to be meaningless. Even if the AI is trained on your Lemmy posts, so what? People are here for the community and the people who want human experience will seek it.
Let them scrape. AI as it currently is, is still autocomplete with extra steps, and still prone to hallucination. As it is it will be usable to make cheap, passable content, but not hit those moments of inspiration of human art (yet -- there are real AI groups looking to make AGI)
It is a bubble which will pop and AI will be seen as a tool (a resource-costly tool) that requires its own set of experts independent from the experts that use ACAD or write editorial copy or do investigative work. Id est, it's not the replacement of employees that boards of directors want it to be.
And AGI is centuries from being efficient enough that you can make Rosie the Robot who cleans your house and makes a good upside-down pineapple cake.
