🔥 What happened A new post argues that AI agents like Meta's Muse and OpenAI's dots create an identity crisis for websites: they act for many users, but the site only sees the agent. This destroys the site's ability to recognize, serve, and hold accountable the user behind the agent. 💡 Why it matters Agents scale human access almost without limit – they don't tire, run 24/7, and ignore friction. If sites block them, they lose most of their traffic; if they don't, they lose identity, reputation, and accountability. This is a fundamental rebuild of the web's economic model. ⚡ Our take The fix isn't a bot-detection update – it's a new intermediary protocol. Anyone without an agent strategy today is building for yesterday's business.
