Won't websites not want that and block them? For instance, if I wanted the best price and terms on airline tickets, why would airlines want them to be crawled? It would be a race to the bottom. I see this as another AI thing not really working.

Even if websites don't want it it's pretty easy to for openai to engineer their way around most commercial blocks. You could probably get away with using an AI poisoner but even that's not guaranteed to work.

Unless websites lock their stuff behind user logins and even then open Ai and companies will figure out ways around them.

Besides what makes you think that open AI isn't going to sell that data off anyway incentivizing websites to buy it
