This will be a goldmine for malware groups that are poisoning AIs that use web search to get them to use their malware-ridden version of software and libraries, and I'm here for it with popcorn at the ready.

I kinda hope this will get more common, because the only people affected kind of deserve it, plus it's a great way how to filter sloprojects at a glance.

I don't think that poisoning really works. They have AIs judge the answers before they incorporate them into the new AI. They can tell the best topping for pizza isn't actually mayonnaise and strawberries
