Your ChatGPT results could start getting a lot worse. The top 20% of the internet was just blocked to AI crawlers. This is a new move to protect publishers against AI theft.
Massive sites like Quora, Time, USA Today, and Stack Overflow are already on board with this. These sites will disappear to AI unless AI pays them a fee. This initiative is from Cloudflare, which is used by 20% of the internet.
The new AI blocking setting is on by default, but if you're a Cloudflare user, you can go and turn it off. And if you want it left on, you can also apply to the Paper Crawl beta to get paid by AI companies for your content.
Cloudflare's default AI crawler blocking and pay-per-crawl initiative may reduce AI access to major publisher content unless AI companies pay.
Monitor client Cloudflare AI crawler settings and publisher access changes; decide intentionally whether content should be available for AI crawling.
