ChatGPT added to blocked user-agents

I have added the block for ChatGPT following the article below. Note that this will only affect new content and new crawls, and will not remove existing content from their training sets. Also, this is not a ‘hard’ way to block AI crawling (there is no way to do that), we just have to hope they honor the signal.

I applaud this move- it may end up being more of a symbolic gesture, but it’s one that shows this site respects its users and the content they create, which is very important. Thanks for doing this

and to add to joseph’s thanks, also lets those of us with our own websites know that there’s a theoretical fix :slight_smile:

Indeed. I bookmarked that so I can install it on our own website.
