Perplexity #AI's "Discover" feature includes LLM-generated news summaries from many different sources.

Similar summary services will likely become more widespread and more sophisticated.

From a reader's perspective, it has significant benefits -- consistent format, no ads, pulling from many sources (including potentially multilingual ones), etc.

But for news media, if readers don't click through to original sources, it creates further strain on business models (ads, donations, etc.).

Totally. This is an extinction level event for journalism and publishers and it needs to be addressed urgently. Otherwise these AI summaries will just be summarizing other AIs and whomever is screaming the loudest on X.
