How do we survive the media apocalypse? (Part 2)

from Search Engine · host PJ Vogt

Last week, Google announced a fundamental change to how the site will work, which will likely have dire effects for the news industry. When you use Google now, the site will often offer AI-generated summaries to you, instead of favoring human-written articles. We talk to Platformer’s Casey Newton about why this is happening, why publishers are nervous, and about a secret new internet you may not have heard of, a paradise to which we may all yet escape.  Support the show at searchengine.show!Search Engine - How do we survive the media apocalypse?
