#163I'd rather have a site showing how well my site is protected from being accessed by AI agents would be preferable, and advises how I can lock it down further. Basically, the exact opposite of this.
One could consider that the LLM paradox: If you don't want an LLM talking about how to make a nuclear weapon, you first need to explain to them how to make a nuclear weapon, which increases the likelyhood, despite your admonition, that they would talk about it.
So perhaps you can point your LLM at this and ask it to inverse the rules and make sure user design remains consistent.

#164The absurd process of SEO hucksters trying to pivot their obsolete services into "GEO" as most ecommerce websites realize their entire value was a list of part numbers and prices.
"GEO" (optimizing for agent search) is the legitimate sequel to SEO though. I published a free macOS app three years ago to the app store and abandoned it. Over the last six months I received multiple emails per week from people asking where they can find it since it only shows up on the app store for older macOS. I finally asked people how they found out about my app, and 100% of the time it was because they asked C…
I'd say it's the illegitimate, because SEO was about getting human traffic to buy human things.
There's no evidence that agent traffic follows the same pathway.

#165Ironically, this feels exactly like the various "semantic web" initiatives, only this time coming directly from the tech megacorps and not the starry-eyed "free web"/"open data" idealists. It will hit exactly the same walls too, namely that the technical details are completely irrelevant - if adopting a standard is actually a negative for websites, because it will separate the site from its users, sites will obviousl…
> if adopting a standard is actually a negative for websites, because it will separate the site from its users, sites will obviously not do it. Not that I believe this will be how the future turns out, but what if the main users of websites end up being agents? Then adopting the standard ends up being a requirement for survival instead of something negative. Hopefully and ideally we don't end up there, because then t…
Curious, in this world, what are the people doing? Is it like that WallE floating bed thing? I just find it fascinating people could survive by dissassociating real effort for...

Maybe we can start a new protocol where the html is encrypted, and the viewer must try 2^10 to 2^20 hashes before the decryption key is discovered. Same formula that BTC mining uses. It would be negligible cost for any single user but terribly expensive for crawling en-masse.
This is how Anubis operates, to some extent. The more suspicious your connection is, the harder and more frequent the proof of work. The latency while browsing the web these days is brutal as a result; between Anubis and Cloudflare and the like. Our prize for it will be the impending super intelligence our benevolent future overlords allow us to exploit, I suppose. /s
Judging by the multiple trivial Anubis bypass browser extensions, Anubis does not operate.

Last night I had a nightmare about cloudflare finally monetizing the "making sure you're not a robot" page. AI agents got the information they needed, we got ads instead ("why are you here? You're supposed to let agents do the thing. Watch some ads instead"). I woke up with such a bad feeling..
I dream of the day where we have the opposite. Each website you visit/scrape/your bot interacts with asks you for $0.01 as payment in lightning tokens. You pay per visit and you don't have to see ads or be tracked anymore.
Bot could look at remaining balance and decide which sites to visit. Ah, has raised rates to 0.025 microtokens/access, I'll have to use which is still a budget-friendly 0.005 mt.

Because you’re a business? Why do you have a website in the first place?
Businesses are generally in the business of serving human customers, not AI agents. Furthermore, if AI agents are so smart, surely they can figure it out for themselves.
Not really, business websites are generally in the business or serving user-agents like browsers that then convey the information to users.
If I tell Claude to go search the web and find me a bunch of links to the websites of restaurants in my neighborhood because I want to try something new do you think the restaurant wants to be on that list?

Now your revenue goes to zero :(
If you depend entirely on search engines for sure. I do not have a commercial site but if I did I would pay other popular and related sites to link to me in a classy non spammy way. I would also pay influencers to link to me and talk about my site. I could totally imagine Joe Rogan saying, "Hey Jamie, what was that site? Oh yeah go to ai dash sucks dash bfdd dot newsdump dot org to get your copy of an SSH banner toda…
Better?! Haha. No, it’s several orders of magnitude worse.
