AI bot traffic will exceed human internet traffic by 2027, Cloudflare CEO says
AI bot traffic will surpass human internet traffic by 2027, Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince said, according to TechCrunch. The prediction is based on Cloudflare's data showing rapid growth in automated traffic from AI crawlers and agents.
Cloudflare processes a significant portion of global web traffic, giving it visibility into the composition of internet requests.
If the majority of page views come from machines rather than humans, the economic model that supports most free web content could face disruption.
