It weakens reddit's ability to use that data for their own AI models. That is the reason for the whole api kerfluffle in the first place, there's no other way to block other AIs from crawling the data for content. OpenAI and others likely made tens if not hundreds of millions off the content in reddit in the last few years, and they paid reddit nothing for it. It's got reddit admins and executives really pissed off.
Thing is, Reddit paid me nothing for the content too though. At the end of the day I don't want my content propping up another fascist billionaire social media mogul with an ego problem, not even a little bit. They burned their bridge so I took my toys and left.
