Cloudflare Blocks AI Crawlers

🚨 Our Report 

Cloudflare announced it will block AI web crawlers by default for first-time customers to prevent unauthorized content scraping. The company is also introducing a "Pay Per Crawl" program, allowing publishers to charge AI companies for rights to their content.

šŸ”“ Key Points

  • The internet infrastructure provider will prompt incoming domain owners to decide whether to allow AI scrapers, with blocking enabled by default, and can identify and restrict crawlers that don’t respect robots.txt files.

  • Cloudflare’s Pay Per Crawl program lets publishers set specific pricing for AI companies to retrieve their content, though it’s available to a select group of leading publishers and content creators.

  • Major publishers, including The Associated Press, The Atlantic, Fortune, Stack Overflow, and Quora, are backing these restrictions, as Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince noted, "People trust the AI more over the last six months, which means they're not reading original content."

šŸ”Ā RelevanceĀ 

Publishers have seized control in the AI ecosystem. As chatbots increasingly replace traditional web search tools, this shift clarifies who owns content and how it can be used. It sets a standard for fair compensation between creators and AI developers. The ripple effects will touch everything from how future AI models train to what information they may retrieve.

How Stripe boosted fraud detection from 59% to 97% with AI

  • Stripe’s payments team faced card-testing attacks probing stolen cards and costing merchants revenue.

  • They launched a Payments Foundation Model, an AI system trained on billions of transactions with a real-time classifier to flag attacks.

  • As a result, detection rose from 59% to 97% overnight.

  • Plus, Adaptive Acceptance AI recovered $6B in declined payments, improved false-decline precision by 70%, and cut retry attempts by 35%.

  • The U.S. Senate has overwhelmingly voted to strike a controversial provision from a budget bill that would have blocked states from regulating artificial intelligence for ten years.

  • The "AI moratorium," introduced by Sen. Ted Cruz, was backed by figures like OpenAI’s Sam Altman and a16z’s Marc Andreessen to prevent a "patchwork of regulation" they claimed could stifle innovation.

  • A bipartisan group of senators argued the ban would harm consumers and allow AI companies to operate with little oversight. The effort to repeal it was led by an amendment from Sen. Marsha Blackburn and Sen. Maria Cantwell.

  • After an initial compromise to shorten the ban to five years fell apart, the Senate voted 99-1 to strip the provision from the bill completely.
