Imagine being able to use AI to create 3D virtual worlds using prompts as easily as you can generate images. The intersection of AI and VR was one of the biggest topics at Meta Connect this year. In his keynote, Mark Zuckerberg shared his vision of a future where anyone can create virtual worlds using […]

Over the past 21 years, Meta has grown exponentially from a small social network connecting a few thousand people in a handful of universities in the U.S. into several apps and novel hardware products that serve over 3.4 billion people throughout the world. Our infrastructure has evolved significantly over the years, growing from a […]

We’ve replaced the original core system in Cloudflare with a new modular Rust-based proxy, replacing NGINX. It’s not only substantially faster for all our customers, it’s also more secure, and lets us ship new products quicker than ever before.

AS-SETs, for better or worse, are critical data sources that help build BGP route filters across the Internet. Because these AS-SET objects are based solely on trust, they can be misused. We will cover some of the reasons why operators need to monitor the AS-SET memberships for their ASN, and now Cloudflare Radar can help.

On the Internet, being fast is what matters and at Cloudflare, we are committed to being the fastest network in the world. In this post, we will share how our network performance has changed since our last post in September 2024, and discuss the tools and processes we are using to assess network performance.

It turns out we've all been using MCP wrong. Most agents today use MCP by exposing the "tools" directly to the LLM. We tried something different: Convert the MCP tools into a TypeScript API, and then ask an LLM to write code that calls that API. The results are striking.

What if your best AI prompts didn’t disappear into your unorganized chat history, but came back tomorrow as a reliable assistant? In this article, you’ll learn how to turn one-off “aha” prompts into reusable assistants that are tailored to your audience, grounded in your knowledge, and consistent every time, saving you (and your team) from typing the same 448-word prompt ever again.
