Publishers finally have AI buyers for their content yet zero say in the price
TL;DR
AI companies knew what they were taking. Now a market pays for it, but the money stops before it reaches the people who made the content. AI companies knew what they were taking. Now a market pays for it, but the money stops before it reaches the people who made the content.
Nauti's Take
Teams building AI workflows on publisher data should verify licensing evidence, revenue allocation, and reuse rights before rollout. Start with a simple provenance check: which source is used, who gets paid, and whether the payment can be traced to the people who created the content.
If that chain is unclear, the data supply is difficult to plan around.
