The /llms.txt file – llms-txt
llmstxt.org
A proposal to standardise on using an /llms.txt file to provide information to help LLMs use a website at inference time.

This is a proposal by some AI bro to add a file called llms.txt that contains a version of your websites text that is easier to process for LLMs. Its a similar idea to the robots.txt file for webcrawlers.

Wouldn’t it be a real shame if everyone added this file to their websites and filled them with complete nonsense. Apparently you only need to poison 0.1% of the training data to get an effect.

    I’ve had a page that bans by ip listed as ‘dont visit here’ on my robots.txt file for seven months now. It’s not listed anywhere else. I have no banned IPs on there yet. Admittedly, i’ve only had 15 visitors in that past six months though.
