Publishers are being pushed to make increasingly consequential decisions about AI. Allow this crawler. Block that one. License another. Update robots.txt. Protect premium content.

Yet many commercial teams at media and news companies are being asked to make these decisions without a clear picture of the non-human traffic already consuming their content. I’ve spent a lot of time recently talking with publishers and AI companies about content access and licensing.
As AI systems increasingly access digital content, publishers are entering a new commercial reality. Content is being consumed in ways that often sit outside traditional channels such as search, social, or direct audience relationships. While the industry has made progress on scraping detection, permissions, and licensing negotiations, a core challenge remains unresolved: how to consistently turn AI usage into measurable, recurring revenue.
