Google’s .txt file to prevent terminators killing its founders
In 2014, Google uploaded “killer-robots.txt” as an easter egg which tells terminators to not hunt down and kill Google co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin.
Although this was a joke, it also marks the 20th anniversary of the robots.txt document.
You would use a robot.txt document on a website to tell a Google search crawler you want to exclude pages from Google. There’s a few reasons you may want to do this including privacy, security, and bandwidth concerns. You don’t exactly want sensitive or personal information available to the public.
So was a joke ten years ago, but now we are seeing renewed concerns about things like artificial intelligence. There’s some great articles about AI especially from the WSJ and Economist, so be sure to subscribe so we can go through them and discuss together!
