"Cloudflare is set to acquire the AI platform Replicate. With this deal, the company aims to transform Cloudflare Workers into a " leading" platform for AI applications. Developers will soon have access to more than 50,000 AI models within the reach of a single line of code. Ben Firshman, co-founder and CEO of Replicate, emphasizes that the complexity of AI development still lies too much with developers today."

In fact, they will soon be able to benefit from Cloudflare's global network, according to the optimistic outlook the company added to the announcement. According to both parties, this combination should ensure better performance and high availability. Fireshman speaks of a platform on which developers can easily build and deploy."
