"abuse like bots, scraping, fraud, and other attempts to misuse the platform" This has to be a joke, right?

  I really can't tell for sure (new user posting a ridiculously hypocritical corporate message on a Sunday) but if GP actually works for OpenAI the lack of self-awareness is seriously striking

    How?
    • oblio 6mo ago
      Because OpenAI built their entire business around shamelessly scraping anything that had bits on it.
      • singpolyma3 6mo ago
        Maybe. But scraping isn't abuse. Seems a bit different?
        • PunchyHamster 6mo ago
          Given that the scraping doesn't do any rate limiting and pisses on robots.txt, yes it is abuse
          • singpolyma3 6mo ago
            Is there any evidence OpenAI has been ignoring robots.txt for scraping purposes? AFAIK the main sources of that traffic are still unknown.

          Quoting the OP > These checks are part of how we protect our first-party products from abuse like bots, scraping, fraud, and other attempts to misuse the platform. That implies that OpenAI (or at least this employee) considers scraping abuse.

          The top comment categorized scraping as abuse ("abuse such as [...] scraping") - that's precisely why some accuse its author of lack of self awareness.
