human.json is a lightweight protocol for humans to assert authorship of their site content and vouch for the humanity of others. It uses URL ownership as identity, and trust propagates through a crawlable web of vouches between sites.

Basically, a web of trust to confirm that pages are written by actual human beings vs just LLM generated slop.

That idea certainly clicked with me and so I quickly threw together a basic human.json in this page’s static folder and linked to it from the layouts/partials/extend_head.html override file. That will get filled more over time 😊

And as reading through the spec of human.json also made me learn about the /ai slashpage I added that as well and linked it from the footer.

Those slashpages are a fun idea I’ll have to investigate further too!
