You could probably route all requests to your site from them, back at themselves, so they DDoS themselves, and on top off it, cost them more because their endpoint needs to process things via their LLM.
Used to make tarpits with reverse proxies. Accept the connection and then set the responses for a few seconds before default TCP timeout. Doesn’t eat much resource as long as you have enough TCP connections and can reuse them effectively.
