Latest version of “I for one welcome our algorithmic overlords”, via SEO bullshit.

See, according to the “AI” tech bro simps at Search Engine Journal, it’s Really To Your Benefit™ that you target your website content to be extracted by search engines’ “AI” regurgitation. Rather than, you know, at human readers who might be interested in your work.

Also, nobody writes your website’s “job description” but you. Certainly not some search engine marketing sycophant.

Personally? I’d love a how-to on doing the exact opposite, making a website resistant to extraction. Fucking up the algos when they try to harvest your content.

    Ha, you’re the kind of idiot who thinks web sites are made for humans instead of agents?

    I went old school with a local network for my blog: I pee on the walls or in the snow to write my posts. It’s also ecological and fades out in a few minutes. Like Snapchat or something.

    And the mentioned garbage chewing search engines aren’t helping…

    Duckduckgo search for "make an AI resistant website". The results are all for "AI" website builders.

      Yeah, I’m not completely ready to surrender the internet to bots yet (evidently, seeing where we’re having this convo).
