This is certainly part of OpenAI's plan, and a warning shot to other user content-driven sites. An extortion play, if you will, which is business as usual now for fucks sake.
The entire site is gpt.
heh I wonder if all the "old" content getting messed with and/or removed is causing issues with the algorithm/scraper.
For unauthorized scrapers? Definitely
For paid API usage? That tends to not be public for obvious reasons but, allegedly, people have, allegedly, done tests and found "deleted" content in the results.
I remember thinking back in 2021 or 2022 when it was announced they were going public that yep, this site is gonna be gone soon.
Good, hope it crashes.
Yay reddit worth less, wtf it's due to chatgpt?
