AI as Discovery Layer: On-Platform Tools That Transform How Users Find Content

Discovery has always been central to the value publishers provide, but AI is reshaping how researchers navigate and engage with scholarly content. This session focuses on AI-powered discovery tools integrated directly into publishing platforms — recommendation engines, research assistants, and intelligent navigation systems that help users surface relevant content more effectively. We'll examine how these tools are changing user behavior, what makes on-platform AI discovery successful, and how publishers can balance enhanced discoverability with maintaining the trusted, authoritative environment that defines scholarly publishing. Panelists will share insights from implementing AI discovery features and discuss the evolving relationship between traditional search, browse experiences, and AI-assisted content exploration.
