A Reddit discussion is raising concerns about the long-term impact of AI-generated summaries on original content creation. As AI tools increasingly synthesize information from sources like The Athletic and CBS Sports, the fear is that readers will opt for the condensed AI versions, leading to a decline in subscriptions and site visits to the original publishers. This raises a critical question: if original content creators can no longer sustain themselves due to dwindling revenue, what will these AI systems ultimately summarize?
