Cloudflare accused Perplexity AI of data theft

Cloudflare has accused Perplexity AI of collecting data from websites without permission. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

They believe that Perplexity AI is obtaining content from websites through "scraping" using bots, which is considered a violation of transparency and ethical standards. In response to this claim, some experts, journalists, and researchers on the internet have started to defend Perplexity AI.

They emphasize that the company only uses information obtained from open sources. Some analysts assess Cloudflare's position as unjust and unfair.

Perplexity AI has stated that its system operates solely based on user queries and always presents sources transparently. Currently, discussions are ongoing on the internet regarding the rules and boundaries of data usage between artificial intelligence companies and website owners.

These debates are expected to help shape new regulations for working with online data in the future.
