I doubt this will ever be.

Even if the LLM is capable of it, websites will find some method to detect an LLM, and up the pricing. Or mess with its decision tree.

Come to think of it, with all the stuff on the cusp, there's going to be an LLM API. After all, it's beyond dumb to spent time making websites for humans to view, then making an LLM spend power, time, and so on in decoding that back to a simple DB lookup.

I'm astonished there isn't an 'rss + json' API anyone can use, without all the crap. Hell, BBS text interfaces from the 70s/80s, or SMS menu systems from early phone era are far superior to a webpage for an LLM.

Just data, and choice.

And why even serve an ad to an LLM. The only ad to serve to an LLM, is one to try to trick it, mess with it. Ads are bad enough, but to be of use when an LLM hits a site, you need to make it far more malign. Trick the LLM into thinking the ad is what it is looking for.

EG, search for a flight, the ad tricks the LLM into thinking it got the best deal.

Otherwise of what use is an ad? The LLM is just going to ignore ads, and perform a simple task.

If all websites had RSS, and all transactional websites had a standard API, we'd already be able to use existing models to do things. It'd just be dealing with raw data.

edit: actually, hilarious. Why not? AI is super simple to trick, at least at this stage. An ad company specifically tailoring AI would be awesome. You could divert them to your website, trick them into picking your deal, have them report to their owner that your company was the best, and more.

Super simple to do, too. Hmm.
