This is the most frustrating thing, so many people are arguing against their own interests with their efforts to "lock down" their content to prevent AIs from training on it. In this very thread I've been accused of being pro-giant-company when I'm quite the opposite. The harder we make it to train AI, the stronger the advantage that the existing giant companies have in this field.

I mean, Reddit is already doing the best they can to ensure only giant companies can train on their users' data, that's the topic of the post. So, assuming small players won't be able to train on Reddit comments anyway, why not ruin them for the big players?
