#RSL 1.0 statt robots.txt: Neuer Standard für Internet-Inhalte | heise online https://www.heise.de/news/RSL-1-0-Standard-soll-Verwendung-von-Inhalten-regeln-11111422.html #searchengines #searchengine #ArtificialIntelligence #crawler #ReallySimpleLicensing #robotsTXT

A quick thing you can do if you want to restrict or limit #LLM training on your content - or the opposite, allow it under specific conditions (e.g. attribution).

1. Create /license.xml
2. Add License: https://krvtz.net/license.xml line to your /robots.txt

Sample license.xml banning any LLM learning:

<rsl xmlns="https://rslstandard.org/rsl">
  <content url="/">
    <license>
      <prohibits type="usage">ai-train ai-input</prohibits>
    </license>
  </content>
</rsl>

Sample license.xml allowing LLM learning on CC-BY attribution basis:

<rsl xmlns="https://rslstandard.org/rsl">
  <content url="/">
    <license>
      <permits type="usage">all</permits>
      <payment type="attribution">
        <standard>https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</standard>
      </payment>
    </license>
  </content>
</rsl>

A new #licensingstandard, #ReallySimpleLicensing (#RSL), aims to allow #webpublishers to set terms for #AI companies using their content. Supported by major brands like Reddit and Yahoo, RSL builds upon the existing #robotstxt protocol, enabling #publishers to specify #licensing and #royaltyterms for #AItraining data. https://www.theverge.com/news/775072/rsl-standard-licensing-ai-publishing-reddit-yahoo-medium?eicker.news #tech #media #news

RSL is the missing layer for the AI era: set terms, get attribution, and get paid (per crawl or per inference). Open standard, collective leverage. If AI uses your work, it should respect your license. Time to take control.

生成AIが巡回するたび報酬が発生？ 無断クローラー対策の決定版となる標準規格が誕生【やじうまWatch】 - INTERNET Watch
https://internet.watch.impress.co.jp/docs/yajiuma/2046521.html

『「Really Simple Licensing（RSL）」は、 生成AIのトレーニングデータを収集するクローラーに対する利用条件をウェブパブリッシャーが設定できるというもので、ウェブサイトの「robots.txt」ファイルに追記するだけで利用できる。これを用いれば、生成AIのクローラーがコンテンツを巡回するごとに支払うべき料金といったライセンスも設定できることから、AIスクレイピングによってクリエイターは報酬を得やすくなる』

『すでにReddit、Yahoo、Quora、Mediumなどの大手が賛同を表明』
