Cloudflare believes that humans could soon become only a small portion of all internet traffic amid the growth of AI and automated systems.

According to the company's chief financial officer, Thomas Zeifert, nonhuman traffic outpaced human traffic in May 2026 earlier than previous Cloudflare forecasts, which predicted it would happen in 2027.

If the current trend continues, within five years, automated traffic could surpass human traffic by 1,000 times.
