## AI assisted crawler
With the rapid development of network technology, website updates have become more frequent, and changes in class names or structures often bring considerable challenges to crawlers that rely on these elements. Against this background, crawlers combined with AI technology have become a powerful weapon to meet this challenge.
First of all, changes in class names or structures after website updates may cause traditional crawler strategies to fail. This is because crawlers often rely on fixed class names or structures to locate and extract the required information. Once these elements change, the crawler may not be able to accurately find the required data, thus affecting the effectiveness and accuracy of data crawling.
However, crawlers combined with AI technology are better able to cope with this change. AI can also understand and parse the semantic information of web pages through natural language processing and other technologies to more accurately extract the required data.
To sum up, crawlers combined with AI technology can better cope with the problem of class name or structure changes after website updates.
