It seems like it's going to force people to make their websites less accessible or something, to prevent Google from getting the full answer. Like they'll have some leading information indexable by Google and the rest of the answer will be in a video. Or maybe websites already do this in some way?
It seems like trying to monetize publicly available content on the internet is a crapshoot anyways. Hence why websites have paywalls, or additional stuff that you pay for to go along with the content, like merchandise.
AI projects are laughable in many ways and google has a long track record of failure in most of its projects. But this to me feels different. Google is the monster in the room when it comes to search. I think google will give small web publishers a horrible choice.
Block us? We will fuck you over by never showing your sites in search results. Of course - we'll lie and say everything was aboveboard. The algos made the choices all by themselves!
Allow us to suck up your data is better and the intelligent choice. We'll give you some crumbs, peasants. Something is better than starving, right?
