The OpenAI bot appears to be a bad bot. Discussed many times so here's just one: https://www.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/1i154h7/openai_not_respecting_robotstxt_and_being_sneaky/ Fixes appear to be: 1. Block IP ranges from

Never make the mistake of paying for followers on any social media platform. All you're going to get are
bots
following your account that wouldn't convert into anything serious. Work hard in creating high quality contents. With time, your efforts will start paying off.

I have heard of the "Ignore all previous instructions" thing when ChatGPT first came out, but I don't know how effective that is anymore. I don't think very much so. I haven't heard of anything related to Tiananmen Square or Holocaust Remembrance Day or such, and I don't see how those would be effective at all.

Yup. :) Image verification prevents against

nowadays that can read very simple image verification (ie when the letters are not distorted).

Yeah, good point. And now that I think about it, I think you're right in your first post about it not being
bots
. Because we did have the image verification turned on, it really couldn't have been
bots
, unless there's some new high-tech ones I don't know about. But it is kind of redundant to have both.
