Cloudflare has released a set of tools to help website owners and publishers have more control over how their content is accessed by AI bots and crawlers. The free Cloudflare Bot Management platform allows websites to block or charge a fee to approved AI bots, potentially generating revenue for the platforms. An AI audit tool is also available, allowing users to monitor how their content is accessed. The move comes as more AI developers are using public content to train their models, raising concerns about copyright infringement and the lack of compensation for creators. Smaller AI developers are reportedly willing to pay for selected website content.
