  • AI bots are anything but predictable. One week it’s a trickle, the next it’s a tidal wave. After OpenAI's latest update, bot traffic spiked fast and then dropped off. For businesses, that kind of volatility matters. In our new AI Pulse series, we break down data signals in real time to show how AI is reshaping bot behavior and what it means for your web apps and APIs.
