Doesn't o3 sort of already do this? Whenever I ask it something, it makes it look like it simultaneously opens 3-8 pages (something a human can't do).
Seems like a reasonable stance would be something like "Following the no crawl directive is especially necessary when navigating websites faster than humans can."
> What if it gets a bit smarter and tried to anticipate what you'll ask and does a bunch of crawling to gather information regularly to try to stay up to date on things (from your machine)?
To be fair, Google Chrome already (somewhat) does this by preloading links it thinks you might click, before you click it.
But your point is still valid. We tolerate it because as website owners, we want our sites to load fast for users. But if we're just serving pages to robots and the data is repackaged to users without citing the original source, then yea... let's rethink that.
