This post reflects on the future of design* —and the role of designers* —in a world where AI is poised to reshape how society works.

From Penicillin to MySpace, balancing structured research and build with openness to failure has proven a successful approach.
My bad, yes I didn't declare it:
listen[::]443 ssl http2;
thank you.
Using Chrome on a mac, access logs say http 1.1 is accessing the domain.
Nothing in front of Ngnix, but I'm wondering if I have the http 2 module on Nginx...
mmm, blocking everything not http/2.0 is also blocking legit browser, while blocking http/1.0 does not block bots (at least not ChatGPT); blocking non-browsers with $http_sec_fetch_mode works as expected.
Thanks.
I'll give it a try with the != HTTP/2.0 method.

I've been tinkering with a combined solution to block AI bots from crawling my website, it's a robots.txt file (I know, they don't care about it) and a Nginx directive (it works for Ngnix web servers, not if you are on Apache).
These and other anthropological elements are very well described by Esther Gokhale as the basis of her method (which has been a life changer, at least for me).
You can find more on her website or book "8 Steps to a pan-free back".
I guess the good stuff is private and not on Showcase - quite poor quality here.
