      They can and do, but they want the training models to come from highly moderated sources otherwise every AI chatbot would be spewing the most racist parts of 4chan because people would train it that way as a joke.

      If you let AI roam freely across the internet, it would only learn porn, sailor moon, dragon Ball z, and nazi germany.

      Anything can, the difference is reddit holds the exclusive rights to user comments on their site, and they’ve chosen to sell it.
