Is it possible to make the forum and wiki data available on a mirror for the use of AI crawlers? (are search engine crawlers also blocked?)
You asked ChatGPT5: "If websites with large Pascal forums and wikis block AI data harvesting bots, what will be the result for LLMs missing this training data and what will be the effect on these LLMs for Pascal related queries? Provide a simple concise answer with bullet points." ChatGPT said: - Thinner Pascal knowledge: fewer examples and patterns from FPC/Lazarus communities. - Outdated answers: misses recent compiler/RTL/LCL changes and community best practices. - Lower code quality: more non-idiomatic style, wrong units in uses, bad type handling, bogus directives. - More hallucinations: invented packages/components, incorrect API names, fake compiler switches. - Poor ecosystem awareness: weaker guidance on common libs (e.g., Synapse, Zeos, BGRABitmap) and tools (fpcupdeluxe, cross-compile flows). - Weaker troubleshooting: less helpful fixes for linker/Widgetset errors, package management, and IDE quirks. - Language bias: pushes solutions in C/Python/JS rather than solid Pascal. - Narrower coverage: fewer edge cases (Windows/Gtk/Qt specifics, generics/modes nuances). - Less reliable citations: can’t cross-check forum/wiki “canonical” answers. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org https://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
