Many AI crawlers don't identify properly, they fake the User Agent and pretend to be Google Chrome or something like that. So it's bound to only deal with the ones that somehow behave, while it won't do anything to the real bad ones. And from my experience, those can do enough requests per second to get an average server into trouble. At least that's what happened to mine.
