Shared conversations created with Anthropic’s Claude AI assistant appeared in Google search results, raising questions about how generative AI platforms handle shared content and whether users fully understand the privacy implications of making chatbot conversations public, Fortune reports. Search engine experts have long noted that a robots.txt file, which tells search engines whether pages should be crawled, does not guarantee that public webpages will remain out of search results. By July 27, the Google search query that surfaced the shared Claude pages no longer returned the same results, suggesting Anthropic had taken steps to reduce the pages’ visibility in search results. Existing public share links, however, remained accessible to anyone who already had the URL or received it directly.
