Publishers, journalists and independent creators, the people who actually produce the content AI systems train on, summarise and serve to users, often without sending them back to the source. Speaking to Timesnownews.com, Faisal Kawoosa, Chief Analyst and Founder of Techarc, said: “What yesterday’s announcements indicate is that the majority of people will increasingly be using AI chatbots and AI agents for most of their search requirements, which means very few people will now actually be visiting publishers and sites to get deeper things, because agents will search for them, get an abstract from all possible sources, and for the majority of people, that will be enough to research, to read, and even to write. So yes, it is going to hurt publishers more and more… what yesterday’s announcements at Google I/O indicate is definitely that more and more people will now be kind of within Google’s AI loop and they will not need to go beyond that.”
