Cloudflare 's " AI Labyrinth " aims to combat unauthorized AI data scraping by luring bots into "maze" of fake AI -generated pages.

The tool will attempt to thwart AI companies that crawl websites without permission to collect training data for large language models that power AI assistants like ChatGPT.

The content served to bots is deliberately irrelevant to the website being crawled, but it is carefully sourced or generated using real facts.
