Not that my indie website gets noticed by Google Discover anyway, but this is still bad news for web publishers: "In the US, Brazil, and Mexico, 51% of the [Discover] feed is now AI Summaries, structurally reducing opportunities for publisher clicks." https://community.marfeel.com/t/google-discover-s-shift-to-ai-youtube-and-x-what-publishers-are-losing/131424 #SEO

@ricmac Somebody needs to develop an AI blocker for search engines the way we have ad blockers. It won't totally solve the problem but may keep things from getting worse.

@ricmac I'm not sure Google Discover ever advised me a website I returned to a second time afterwards. I eventually turned it off.
