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.

    Seriously. I’ve never seen a convention so aggressively ignored. This isn’t the brilliant idea some think it is.
