To that end the company is developing a "Pay Per Crawl" system, which would give content creators the option to request payment from AI companies for utilising their original content.

So Cloudflare is not as much "saving the Internet", as just becoming a middleman between LLM training companies and content creators. Which I believe has a potential of being a true goldmine in the future.
