"AAP has signed a multi-year agreement with Google, marking the tech company's first AI-driven news partnership in Australia. Under the deal, AAP's reporting will be used to strengthen responses in Google's Gemini app. AAP said its "90-year history of providing primary-source journalism" and "strong reputation for objectivity" make its reporting a valuable addition to Google's AI tools. The AAP has already been partnering with Google for digital innovation and the training of journalists."
"Meanwhile, the UK's Professional Publishers Association has urged the Competition and Markets Authority to impose conduct rules on Google and other AI search platforms. The group said a lack of transparency over how AI systems index and display information is harming publishers and marketers, who cannot see how their content appears in AI search features. In a letter, the PPA warned that publishers are forced to make investment and product decisions without knowing if their content drives traffic, is consumed entirely within AI summaries."
