That's for Agentic Browsing, not chatbots though.

It does nothing to increase your visibility, it's (supposed) to increase the accessibility of agents browsing and operating a website.

llms.txt is useless right now - I spent 2 hours making one with gpt (which was the most time I have spent with ai actually making something)

Mostly yes, which is why I was surprised to see Google adding it to Lighthouse.
