Hot take: I spoke with a big important person at a big important company.
I messaged this person on LinkedIn. Got an answer within 15 minutes where they could not spell my name right. I kept trying to tell myself it would be ok. Nah. Kept getting worse. So that's my new red flag.

Claude's text watermark means changing which words get picked at "low stakes" moments. IMO word choice is NOT "low stakes". Synonyms carry their own mood, history, voice. A statistical model can't account for all of that considering it treats words as interchangeable. Language is not fungible.

Hacking is getting polite. In June, attackers opened a chat with Meta's AI Support Assistant, asked it to add a new email to the victim's account, got a verification code sent to their own inbox, then walked away with a password reset button.

Training crawlers versus retrieval agents. One ingests your content for free to train models, and the other indexes your page in real time to answer user questions. You're subsidizing model training with infrastructure costs that produce no return.

Your brand layers matter in AI search a lot more than they did in regular Google SERPs. I'm discussing the brand control quadrant with Gianluca because I can't be the only one dealing with clients haunted by old PDFs and forums feedling LLMs outdated info.

I like to start at the end sometimes. LLMs don't hand people a category page and tell them to go and browse. They pull out products.
So what happens to the category and collection pages? I answer that at the AI Search & Systems Summit on 13 August. It's free!

Every AI answer opens with a paragraph of throat-clearing and buries the actual instruction at the bottom. That's almost always unusable for an ADHD brain.

Reddit huge for LLMs. It's the cleanest record of tribes arguing in their own voice, with their own vocabulary, about what matters to them. r/Watches performing connoisseurship. r/frugalmalefashion litigating value. It feels like ethnography basically but by LLMs and at a dizzying scale.

When you type a query like "healthiest snack for someone in their mid-40s with ADHD.", LLMs break this down to make judgment calls and inferences, such as interpreting "mid-40s" to mean "adult" and inferring that "ADHD" means the user "needs to focus". The fan-out feels like typecasting for products
