The article discusses the recent changes in Google's search engine that rely on artificial intelligence technologies, such as "AI Overviews" and "AI Mode," which provide direct answers to users within the search page. This reduces the need to visit original news websites. These developments have increased concerns among media organizations about their impact on traffic and revenue, as there is a fear that self-generated answers may decrease the number of clicks to original content. Some organizations have begun exploring measures to limit their content's access to AI tools, amid the European Commission's response to monitor creators' rights. Google affirms that it maintains high-quality traffic and aims to help users discover original content. Meanwhile, the competition is moving toward establishing sites as sources referenced by AI, which can lead to greater pressure on their links.
