ИИ уже читает ваш сайт, но по каким правилам? LLMs.txt, robots.txt и контроль агентов

Еще пару лет назад веб жил в простой и понятной модели: есть сайты, есть поисковые роботы, есть пользователи. Роботы приходят, сканируют страницы, кладут их в индекс — дальше начинается привычная борьба за позиции в выдаче. Эта логика десятилетиями определяла, как мы строим сайты, настраиваем SEO и пишем robots.txt.С появлением LLM-агентов эта модель начала трещать по швам. Читать далее Read more

«Эгоистичный ген» Ричарда Докинза: жуткая и удивительная правда о смысле жизни

В ней 35-летний Ричард Докинз довел теорию Чарльза Дарвина до логического завершения, убедительно показав, что базовая единица естественного отбора это не индивид, а наши гены, точнее, самые «эгоистичные» из них.
