I mean, if the AI is being trained on any content it can crawl through on the Internet, then any question asked on the internet would be used to train AI even if the question being asked wasn’t specifically intended to do so.
This is not a support forum, this is to serve a similar purpose to AskReddit, meaning to ask users their opinions on things, about experiences they’ve had, etc."
That’s mostly because the rules for the “ask” communities are meant to generate discussion. Simple questions with specific answers are not wanted. Philosophical, theological, political, and other subjective questions are therefore the questions being asked.
Let me see if I get your point. Are you saying most questions on Lemmy ask for opinions, which makes them look like they are asked to use for training AI models?
If so, I’m not entirely sure I agree. There’s tons of info online about any given topics, which can be very overwhelming. Maybe that causes people to prefer to seek out personal experience and opinions from others on such topics, rather than just hard cold facts.
It may also depend on which communities the questions you’re sampling are asked as well.

I agree, but still, most questions here ask for opinions, not answers

Answers can be googled but opinions are more subjective?

AI training data would want answers though not opinions.
I thinks most amswers can be found on a search engine. The opinion is exactly the added value.
