谷歌“首选来源”功能转移AI搜索控制权
谷歌推出了首选来源功能，让用户手动选择媒体，但这实际上是在ai生成答案取代传统链接之际将责任推给用户。
google introduced preferred sources, allowing users to manually select news outlets to prioritize in search results. this move coincides with ai-generated answers increasingly replacing direct links to external sites, turning independent publishers into raw material for google's systems. the company faces pressure to reduce risks to media pluralism under europe's digital services act. by forcing manual configuration, google can claim user agency if results suffer, while favoring compliant partners like reddit over publishers who demand copyright compensation. this effectively sidelines reputable journalism in favor of content sources that do not legally challenge google's data usage.
