Google's AI is bleeding through the web like a blot of ink on a piece of paper. It's using summaries to manipulate traffic and divert it to its own domains. This may sound innocuous for individual consumers, but it's bad for online businesses.

The mere slap on the wrist Google received for its antitrust practices have empowered it. Google now fancies itself "unstoppable," and it will destroy the web if it isn't stopped. It would be fine were the AI parasites to build a whole new web exclusively for their thieving agents, but that's not what's happening. Instead, they are cannibalizing the human web.
