The only people mad at Google/LLM summaries not leading to click-throughs are the website operators themselves. They're great for the user that doesn't have to go to a garbage ad riddled page.

Kagi's "summarize page" and "ask questions about this page" are my go to over clicking results. One gets me what I want instantly, one gets me a 20 paragraph history of wing nuts.

This "kite" thing is genuinely the nicest news experience I've had in a long time. I hope they keep investing in it. It's finally news built for the user and no one else.

The websites are garbage ad riddled because the operators have to pay for the site and the writers and such, and the vast majority of people are unwilling (or unable) to pay even $1 for viewing a site.

Even YouTube premium, lots of folks prefer their ad blocker over paying to remove the ads cause the adblocker is free.
