AI scraping vs. the open web. Who wins? 🥊

Let's say the quiet part out loud: AI companies have trained their models for years on your company's website data, regardless of if you want them to.

Fast forward to today: many publishers have lost up to 70% of website traffic (and huge chunks of revenue) because of this.

So what happens if some of these publications.... die? Then the AI companies have fewer, human-created source material to train future models on.

Rut roh.

Maybe the Really Simple Licensing protocol can save us all.

We talk with RSL Collective (  / rslcollective  ) Co-founder Doug Leeds (  / dougleeds  ) on if a new licensing structure can be a win-win-win for publishers, AI companies and end users. 

You don't wanna miss this one. 👇
