Kudos Unveils Research Project to Examine AI Search Risks to the Research Ecosystem
Kudos announced “a fast-track research project to help publishers understand and respond to the threat of zero-click search (‘Google Zero’) and AI overview panels.” It “will explore the implications of zero click search, not only to publisher traffic and business models, but also to research integrity and trust in the scholarly record. It will incorporate a survey of user perceptions and behaviours; desk research and teleinterviews to deliver insights into how organizations within and beyond our sector are tackling the zero-click search threat; and actionable next steps for publishers and platforms, including practical guidance on implementing ‘Answer-Engine Optimization’ (AEO).”The project’s launch partners are De Gruyter Brill, Emerald Publishing, IOP Publishing, Silverchair, and Springer Nature. Kudos is seeking additional sponsors. For more information, read the blog post.
