Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince revealed a landmark stat during the Q2 earnings call: for the first time in human history, over 50% of the traffic on Cloudflare's network in Q2 was non-human, primarily driven by AI agents.
He emphasized that as the web shifts from human-driven browsing to AI answer engines and agent-driven commerce, we are witnessing a fundamental rewrite of the Internet for machine-to-machine (M2M) traffic.
