ChatGPT Web Scraping: What It Can and Can't Do (Tested)

In this post I tested ChatGPT web scraping to the fullest, extracting data without hands-on coding. I tested how ChatGPT scrapes data directly in the chat, how it helps us build a custom scraper, and how it deals with common issues we face when scraping data. I tried my best to use ChatGPT to scrape a website by itself, but as you will see in the test results, sometimes I had to turn the autopilot off and steer it in the right direction.
