  • Provides timely responses with web sources and images

  • Offers follow-up questions and related searches

  • Incorporates location-based results for improved accuracy

  • Interface similar to ChatGPT for user familiarity

Availability:

  • Currently in prototype stage for limited users and publishers

Anthropic's ClaudeBot Ignores Websites' Anti-AI Scraping Policies

Anthropic's web crawler, ClaudeBot, has come under scrutiny for aggressively scraping websites, potentially violating their terms of service and causing server strain. This incident highlights the ongoing tension between AI companies' data collection practices and website owners' rights and resources.

Details:

  • iFixit CEO Kyle Wiens reported ClaudeBot hit the website's servers nearly a million times in 24 hours, despite terms prohibiting such use

  • Other websites, including Read the Docs and Freelancer dot com, have reported similar aggressive scraping by Anthropic's crawler

  • Anthropic claims to respect robots.txt files but initially ignored other forms of opt-out policies

This situation highlights the need for clearer AI data collection rules and standards. It shows the challenges websites face in protecting content from AI scraping.
