Why is this important? As AI systems rely increasingly on online content, this standard could help build a better relationship between content creators and AI platforms.\nTo wrap up, Principal Engineer Kevin Guthrie walks us through the blog post “Performance measurements… and the people who love them”, which explores how teams can better measure, visualize, and communicate web performance, beyond raw metrics.\nMentioned blog posts:\n\nForget IPs: using cryptography to verify bot and agent traffic\nPerformance measurements… and the people who love them","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/ZUM5t9ScvLUOOnb2X4sDtiPmdc7DRjTvZMqAMm75gqE/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS84MTdl/NWEyZGFiMGQ3N2Yy/YTQ5N2ZkNTU1MTM0/YjJmZS5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
