Google's entire business model relies on web publishers allowing them to scrape their content for free.
So does ChatGPT's.
If the incentive for web publishers (deh monies, bebe) to participate in this symbiotic relationship with Google (chatGPT is just a large leeching a/c) is removed then I can see publishers developing some very simple tech that prevents Google or ChatGPT from scraping their content and maybe looking at some kind of direct sponsorship model.
Or simply moving away from publishing on the web as we know it. Because Google doesn't own the Internet, it only has a monopoly there. And market monopolies are like Empires - they always fall apart.
Without web publishers, all tools based on ChatGPT become instantly useless and pointless, and Google simply has no reason to exist.
The only way human content can be replaced is by a General AI and we are *at least* 15 - 30 years from that becoming a reality.
But I do agree that web publishers need to shift their focus away from Google, which might even be to embrace a brand new search engine that appears to replace Google.
Google will die rapidly if it becomes a closed system that only rewards content from big name brands, and those with the capital to do large marketing campaigns. The next wave will more directly tie content creators to Ai based rewards based on crypto that reward authority and new timely information. The next wave will be closed systems where all the participants have the potential to earn crypto or pay crypto based on their role which would include monetizing data sharing. The next wave will look more like what Brave browser is trying to implement by integrating Web 3 and introducing their own crypto coin that can be used to reward content etc.
