I tend not to share this view. If retraction doesn't encompass the "bad literature" (far from it), it gives us a view on #publishers practices, has shown (finally to everyone) that #peerreview is not made to detect fraud, and has "radiation" effects (eg "feet of clay detector" @gcabanac.cpesr.fr )
Retraction data are still useless – almost

Retractions of scholarly articles are a rare event, affecting only about 0.02-0.04% of articles in total (but yearly rates are going up dramatically). This means that data about retractions are not even close to being representative of the scholarly […]

ページビュー神話の終焉と Googleコアアップデート が示す次の評価軸
長年、大手パブリッシャーはGoogleを「配信のための公共インフラ」のように扱ってきた。大量に記事を出し、あらゆるテーマを網羅し、あとはドメインオーソリティに任せればいい、という考え方である。しかし、昨年の12月11日から29日にかけて実施された12月のコアアップデートは、その取引関係が崩れつつあることを示す、またひとつの兆しとなった。 複数の分析データによれば、このアップデートではニュースサイトが大きな影響を受け、特に変動が激しかった。一方で、比較的持ちこたえているように見えるのは、総合ニュースのハブというよりも、**「もっとも良い答え」を提供するエンジンのように振る舞っているサイト** だ。 「この1年ほどで不自然に順位を上げていた、海外拠点で信頼性の低いニュースサイトの多くは姿を消した。彼らは信頼を積み上げることなく可視性だけを獲得していたが、今回のアップデートは、長らく必要とされてきた品質是正のように見える」と、コンテンツマーケティングおよびSEOエージェンシー、アイプルランク(iPullRank)の創業者兼CEOであるマイケル・キング氏は語る。 **[▼会員登録をして続きを読む▼]** The post ページビュー神話の終焉と Googleコアアップデート が示す次の評価軸 appeared first on DIGIDAY[日本版].

It is a big problem for #publishers, who now “might not have access to a major market,” and independent bookstores. It’s also an issue for “readers who rely on #libraries for access to books.” (103/?)

As #AI reshapes discovery, publisher sustainability depends less on access controls and more on aligned incentives.

Revenue models that share upside create healthier ecosystems for #publishers, platforms, and audiences alike. mediacopilot.ai/ai-revenue-p...
Two paths to AI revenue: Licensing bot access versus sharing ad income
AI revenue platforms can help news publishers adapt to changes in content access and deliver new monetization solutions.

Are any UK #politicians actually considering whether 'dangerous' material should be freely available on #socialmedia platforms. Social media platforms are #publishers nothing gets onto them without the owners permission they rather than young people must be regulated and obliged to be #responsible

AIスクレイピング され放題の時代は終わるか。FT幹部が予測する2026メディア転換点
ここ1年の大半において、パブリッシャーはAIによるスクレイピングや著作権をめぐる不確実性に対し、防戦一方の状況に置かれてきた。しかし2026年になり、一部では、ようやく地合いが少しずつ自分たちに有利な方向へ動き始めていると見る向きもある。 フィナンシャル・タイムズ(Financial Times、以下FT)は、2024年に英国拠点のパブリッシャーとして初めてOpenAIとライセンス契約を結んだ。現時点では、他の消費者向けLLMとは合意に至っていないが、FTでグローバル公共政策およびプラットフォーム戦略を統括するマット・ロジャーソン氏は、2026年には、**大手テック企業が将来的な法的リスクを回避するためにAIライセンスに対する姿勢を変え、一種のリセットが起きると見ている** 。また、AIスクレイピングも新たな段階に入っていると考えている。 「すべてのパブリッシャーは、この2年間、Webサイトのセキュリティに存在するあらゆる抜け穴、あるいは抜け穴と認識されている部分を塞ぐことに注力してきた」と同氏は語る。「それでもまだ隙はある。起業家がスクレイピング代行プラットフォームを使い、ペイウォールをかいくぐってコンテンツを抜き取るのを止めるだけの、十分に大きな抑止力は依然として存在しない。ただし、**AIスクレイピングを取り巻く包囲網は確実に狭まってきていると思う** 」。 Digidayはロジャーソン氏に、何が変わり、なぜパブリッシャーがAI報酬をめぐって、より建設的なフェーズに入りつつあるのかについて話を聞いた。 **[▼会員登録をして続きを読む▼]** The post AIスクレイピング され放題の時代は終わるか。FT幹部が予測する2026メディア転換点 appeared first on DIGIDAY[日本版].

'As recently as the 2000s, national Canadian newspapers ran dozens of reviews in huge pullouts — the largest The Globe and Mail ran was 64 pages. Today, mainstream reviews are scarce.'
