Can AI assistants cite mobcup.fm?

  • ChatGPT search: its search crawlers may read the site
  • Claude: its search crawlers may read the site
  • Perplexity: its search crawlers may read the site

mobcup.fm opts out of AI training by OpenAI, ByteDance. Training crawlers and answer crawlers are separate: blocking training doesn't by itself remove a site from AI answers.
