If it were up to me, Apple would create the world’s first “Do Not Train” registry. Enter your domain or web page, get a TXT record or meta tag to prove ownership, prevent Apple from using your content to train any LLM.

Only a small percentage of sites would do it, I think, so the training impact would be low, but it’d be extremely meaningful for those people. And it’d be a valuable PR tool, brand-booster, and competitor-shamer. (Bonus: make it open and encourage competitors to follow it.)

@cabel I have to admit, I don’t understand this whole thing. As much as I dislike the current AI craze, if it’s going to exist, I want it to learn the facts I have on my website so they can be presented to people who use it, and I don’t get why anyone wouldn’t want this from their website too.
