OpenAI Releases 'Official Crawler': GPT-5 Trains on It, Can Be Blocked if Needed

OpenAI has released their "official crawler" GPTBot, which is used to train artificial intelligence models such as GPT-4 and GPT-5. GPTBot will be employed to scrape data from the internet to enhance the accuracy, functionality, and security of AI models. Website owners have the discretion to allow or restrict the content that GPTBot can crawl. This move has sparked debates about data usage, copyright, and privacy, although some argue that OpenAI has the right to freely use public web data.

Anthropic Invests 51.7 Billion Dollars in 11 Months for 14.8 GW of Remarkable Computing Power

The arms race for AI computing power is intensifying. Anthropic signed a computing power contract worth 51.7 billion dollars in 11 months, adding at least 14.8 gigawatts to its existing 1 to 2 gigawatts starting from October 2025, and launching its own data centers. However, its scale may still fall short of OpenAI, reflecting the strategic confrontation behind its aggressive expansion.

OpenAI Chief Scientist Warns: AI May Soon Enter Self-Improvement Phase, Hopes Industry Will Voluntarily Slow Down

Ilya Sutskever, OpenAI's Chief Scientist, warned that AI is evolving too quickly, making it increasingly difficult for humans to understand and control. He called on laboratories to voluntarily slow down development for safety reasons. He stated that models will soon be able to self-improve, and they can already operate computers, collaborate with humans and AI, and conduct research projects.

OpenAI Collaborates with Firmus in Malaysia, Total Capacity Signed Exceeds 900 Megawatts

Australian AI infrastructure company Firmus has reached a long-term strategic cooperation with OpenAI. OpenAI will purchase dedicated computing power from two AI factories in Malaysia operated by Firmus and become an anchor customer. This collaboration has enabled Firmus to sign a total computing capacity exceeding 900 megawatts.
