Can you source that claim? It sounds absolutely ridiculous and costly/wasteful. It would be nigh impossible to ingest 1000s of webpages into a single chat.

It turned out I remembered the number incorrectly. It was actually 5000 http requests!

However, upon further investigation, this is a special case triggered by a security researcher, and not the normal mode of operation.
If one reads the security advisory - the security researcher’s claim is that a particular API endpoint would accept URLs without deduping, so they were able to send 5000 URLs to it - nothing more sophisticated.
