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.
