Often they read hundreds of pages and send almost no traffic back.Cloudflare estimates that automated bots now generate roughly 57% of all web requests. Machine traffic has overtaken human traffic. AI crawlers and agents are part of that change, although not every bot is connected to AI.A March 2026 analysis of one month of Cloudflare logs found that AI crawlers fetched 1,241 pages for every citation sent by an AI answer engine.
