Google to support AI training opt-out via robots.txt

Original: Google plans to support shared AI training opt-out via robots.txt

Google has announced plans to let websites opt out of AI training using a shared mechanism built on robots.txt, the long-standing standard for controlling crawler access. The move would give publishers a single, familiar way to signal whether their content can be used to train AI models, and it is being discussed as a significant step in the ongoing debate over content rights and AI scraping.

Why now: Publishers and webmasters are closely watching how Google will let them control the use of their content for AI training.
