And from all of that enormous value, GDP struggled to count it.

We ended up with it being funneled, a very small portion of it, to Google.

So there was this issue that there's this enormous...

wealth of richness out there.

And maybe 10% of that value showed up and nearly all of that went to Google.

So are we just unmasking a longer standing problem here?

And I think Google is probably a better player than some of the other AI companies.

I think there's some amazing data about the number of times some of these AI models will crawl a website for the number of humans they actually send.

And it's sometimes thousands of crawls to send a single person, which might then be monetized.

One of the things that strikes me is that the internet is full of

a lot of very mid content.

I mean, it's got some specialist expert content.

It's got some deeply researched material.

It's got some very narrow trade information, some very personal information.

But a lot of the traditional media industry, I mean, it's in the word media.

It's coming from, you know, medium in the middle.

And an answer engine...

doesn't mean 27 mediocre sort of similar takes of what you or I or the president might have said.

It just needs one.

So even if this proposal works, it's going to require some changes to the way media owners and content creators think.
