So I see often any Ai bots scraping websites often at high rates. What's the actual go here, are they training without storing the scrapped data? Or is this after training when people are using them (requests to supplement a query, eg tool/mcp usage). Or are people inflating scraping the site 7 times a second to mean the whole site when it's just one page
I'm not doubting the extra load, I'm just curious about how it's not a scrape once and then they are done kind of deal

@xssfox@cloudisland.nz my assumption has been that these scrapers are all the βalso ranβ companies who donβt give a shit about anything, least of all engineering
