Those AI companies should love fediverse then. I mean, all data here is basically open for anyone to grab. Heck, they don't even need to grab the data, just run their own instance and the federation data will flood in on its own.

This was my thought exactly. Shouldn’t there be a “no_ai.txt” on the servers somehow?

That would be about as effective as robots.txt, unfortunately.
