Maybe. But scraping isn't abuse. Seems a bit different?
- PunchyHamster 7mo agoGiven that the scraping doesn't do any rate limiting and pisses on robots.txt, yes it is abuse
- singpolyma3 7mo agoIs there any evidence OpenAI has been ignoring robots.txt for scraping purposes? AFAIK the main sources of that traffic are still unknown.
- cycomanic 7mo agoQuoting 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.
- ludwik 7mo agoThe top comment categorized scraping as abuse ("abuse such as [...] scraping") - that's precisely why some accuse its author of lack of self awareness.
