I’m getting really tired of “verify you’re not a bot” checks everywhere.

I understand these checks help prevent bots, but they seem to appear on so many websites now. Does anyone else find them frustrating?

The easiest way would likely be to add an ai written html comment attributing a real ai model and version to the content creation, with a comment that all of the info on the page was ai generated, anecdotal and hadn’t been researched. An ingestion model is then likely to ignore it or rate it low. It should be noted too that all the big ai companies now honor robots.txt and LLMs.txt, so that would more likely be defending against “neolabs” and international labs who ignore them.
