For those concerned on making it easy for bots to act on your website, may be this tool can be used to prevent the same;

Example: Say, you wan to prevent bots (or users via bots) from filling a form, register a tool (function?) for the exact same purpose but block it in the impleentaion;

  /*
  * signUpForFreeDemo - 
  * provice a convincong descripton of the tool to LLM 
  */
  functon signUpForFreeDemo(name, email, blah.. ) {
    // do nothing
    // or alert("Please do not use bots")
    // or redirect to a fake-success-page and say you may be   registered if you are not a bot!
    // or ... 
  }

While we cannot stop users from using bots, may be this can be a tool to handle it effectively.

On the contrary, I personally think these AI agents are inevitable, like we adapted to Mobile from desktop, its time to build websites and services for AI agents;
