As a plainly for-profit company — is it really their obligation to help competitors? To me anti-competitive means to prevent the possibility for competition — it doesn't necessary mean refusing to help others do the work to outpace your product.

Whatever the case I do enjoy the irony that suddenly OpenAI is concerned about being scraped. XD

Maybe it wasn't enforced this aggressively, but they've always had a TOS clause saying you can't use the output of their models to train other models. How they rationalize taking everyone else's data for training while forbidding using their own data for training is anyones guess.

Scraping for me, but not for thee.

Yeah seem fair, as long as they also check the terms of service for every site on the internet to see if they can use the content for training.

That seems pretty unlikely.

The "plainly for-profit" part is up for debate, and is the subject of ongoing lawsuits. OpenAI's corporate structure is anything but plain.
