@Laurent Le Meur<mailto:laurent@edrlab.org> – do you know if there are minutes from that breakout?   If so, can you share?

Interesting read:

But still no move from Google after this blog post: https://blog.google/technology/ai/ai-web-publisher-controls-sign-up/

At the W3C TPAC, yesterday, I tried to push the discussion during a breakout session on the impact of generative AI on the Web.

3 people from Google in the room; two young developers (unknown service) and Dan Brickley (Google / DataCommons). They didn't seem interested by copyright issues, more by the future of the Web at large vs AI.

Best regards
