Cloudflare announced new tools Tuesday aimed at helping websites easily block bots that scrape content. The tools allow for granular control, enabling content creators to understand how AI models utilize their material.
Cloudflare emphasized the need for content creators to protect their work in the age of generative AI, where valuing content has become increasingly challenging due to unrestricted AI scraping practices.
In the past, there was a clear distinction between beneficial bots and malicious ones. However, Large Language Models introduce a third, ambiguous category, complicating the decision-making process for web operators regarding AI scraping.
Cloudflare revealed it is developing a marketplace that will allow content creators to negotiate deals for their data, potentially charging for access to their most valuable content.
