A solution: do not use AI for things they weren't designed for.
If you really need an AI to help with your programming (you don't) then
use it properly: install it in your computer and train it by yourself,
or get one trained properly if it yet exists. Or (better) learn how to
program properly and build your own knowledge library.
In any case DO NOT use any AI badly trained as the ones they offer "for
free".[1]
Just my two cents.

Guillermo Martínez.

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- Outdated answers: misses recent compiler/RTL/LCL changes and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.
