Supporting a shared AI training control for websites
Today, we're announcing our plans to support a shared AI training control in robots.txt. This will help websites express their AI training preferences across multiple AI providers in a single step and is based on work from the AIPREF working group at the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). This builds on our long history of providing website owners with clear controls, including through Google-Extended, the AI training control we've offered since 2023.
