For me, I hate the database because it drastically isolates the people who produce the data from the people who use it. The kind of feedback and backchannels that come from two human beings interacting with eachother and eachother's work is the very thing that helps people to improve and is the only reason good data exists in the first place.

A human trained on an artwork will often engage with the artist and that artwork. An AI web scraper never will. People joke about "thank you"s directed at AIs wasting large amounts of energy, but the real waste is that none of those thank-yous will trickle backward towards the people who most deserve them.
