Info

1 of 6 AI training crawlers are blocked

Blocked: GPTBot.

  • GPTBotOpenAIL10

    OpenAI model training

    "Disallow: /" blocks GPTBot.

If that is the intention. If your intention is to prevent this content being used as model training data, the current configuration achieves that for these crawlers — the rest of the group is still allowed.

Consequence. These crawlers cannot retrieve content from the site, so it will not be collected as training data. They send no traffic back, and blocking them does not affect search rankings.

If that is not intended. Remove the site-wide block, or replace it with narrower path restrictions.
