Machine Learning models

Enterprise customers with auto-updates to the machine learning model turned on get Adaptive Intelligence. To check or change the setting:

Enabling auto-updates moves your traffic onto the model behind Adaptive Intelligence. This model retrains more frequently than fixed, numbered versions were released, so your bot score reflects newly identified attack patterns as the model learns them, rather than only when a new version ships.

If you are on an older, fixed Machine Learning model, you will see a score change to requests scored by the Machine Learning source as soon as you enable auto-updates.

If you do not enable auto-updates, your traffic continues to be scored by your current fixed model version. Cloudflare does not maintain or monitor fixed model versions after they are superseded, and scoring accuracy degrades as attack patterns evolve beyond what that version was trained on.

The following table lists released versions through v9, the final fixed version. Enabling auto-updates moves you off numbered versions entirely, onto Adaptive Intelligence.
