AI summaries causing creators to earn less by keeping visitors from their original work.
It is like a food blogger sharing the whole recipe. An AI hands out the dish at the door. Nobody visits the blogger's kitchen.
Creators then have less reason to make deep work. The web gets thinner and less useful.

Zero-click answers take visitors from source websites. This makes creator pay drop faster.
AI-Authored Web
More synthetic content makes original work earn even less.
Training Data Supply Chain
Less original work means less good material for future AI training.
