There's no such thing as only having "read" access with HTTP. If the website saves part of the GET URL as input in any way - like through standard "?input=my+text" params - then the AI has the ability to "write". The way servers use the request URL is completely arbitrary - the params could be "/input/my%20text" or entirely encoded in some way - there's no way to completely prevent this.
