BBC News: Businesses scramble to get noticed by AI search

"Rather than having extensive pages of content, HubSpot are now creating smaller pieces that GenAI can ingest"

Much like the move to video on social media, it feels like HubSpot are butchering their own content just to fit in with the trendy new tech that's overall WORSE for users!

Start calling 'AI' what it actually is. Generative Technology. You can call it something else as a shorthand like Generative Tech or Gen Tech or even GT if you like, but stop calling it AI.

Largest study of its kind shows AI assistants misrepresent news content 45% of the time – regardless of language or territory

An intensive international study was coordinated by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and led by the BBC

Ofcom survey finds that 54% of people surveyed are outsourcing their thinking to the "can't actually think" machine 😐 And despite my kid's school having an anti-AI uprising, it's worst amongst teens and early 20s 😮

And social media *posting* is down but not necessarily use. Partly, it seems, because some people like scrolling infinite feeds of short-form video drivel?
