Hey #Fediverse.. I need to ask you a controversial question about #AI.

My software (including [bandwagon.fm](http://bandwagon.fm)) hard blocks anything it can identify as an AI agent. It's the best blocking mechanism I could find, and it is important for artists who feel like their music is getting stolen by AI scrapers.

But AI is becoming the way that many/most people search the Internet, so that hard block makes you increasingly invisible to people searching the Internet.

What do YOU think we should do?
