The AI contribution pilot allows you to earn money when your content contributes significantly to the creation of AI-generated responses shown to users in participating products.

Al contribution focuses on the phase of generation where web content can significantly influence what response is generated. Web content may also confirm facts or be linked to within Google's Al after a response is generated, but those instances don't qualify for Al contribution.

This seems to be re-apply for adsense new style by the back door. Anyway, you'd need to be doing some cutting edge thinking, researching, and or production on your sites, to be picked up regularly I think.

Also what happens once the next update happens, and it no longer needs to come back to your site, cause its "learned"?

I think you can find the details in your search console somewhere.

how does a publisher keep that value long-term when AI can potentially absorb and summarize their work?
Just curious what others think about this.
 
Feels like a test to keep good publishers feeding fresh data into AI. The bigger question is whether payments stay worth it once google can answer more queries without sending any clicks back.
