What Is GPTBot?
GPTBot is OpenAI's web crawler used to gather publicly available content for training its AI models, which site owners can allow or block via robots.txt.
GPTBot is distinct from OpenAI's other crawlers, ChatGPT-User and OAI-SearchBot, which fetch pages in real time to answer a specific user query rather than for training.
