Can AI assistants cite rutube.ru?

  • 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

rutube.ru doesn't opt out of AI model training through robots.txt. Training crawlers and answer crawlers are separate: blocking training doesn't by itself remove a site from AI answers.
