What's the relationship between conference size and "success"? My experience? Small well-designed conferences beat the pants off huge events!

"In a world of big change, we are surrounded by some very small minds!" - Futurist Jim Carroll

There are still some people fighting the battles of 2024, the issues of 2022, the world of 2020, the realities of 2018.

It's 2026.

Everything has changed.

What happens in a time of big change is that the small minds refuse to let go of where they were, and find it impossible to go to where the rest of the world is going.

They struggle to comprehend the new order of the world because they are still raging about the old one.

They can't let go of their desire to go back to where they think we should be going, rather than going to where the rest of us are going.

They're a tiresome bunch, aren't they!

"Generative engine optimization: SEO was a popularity contest. GEO is an intelligence test." - Futurist Jim Carroll

We are moving from SEO to GEO, and it's happening incredibly fast!

**Maria Franzoni** had a post about that yesterday - just as the very moment I was optimizing my website for the AI got!

GEO? What's that? Rebuilding our websites so they feed the AI machine better, improving our chances of showing up in ChatGPT and other AI search results!

With this, I've turned off the minimal Google Ads I've been running and put in place the code to let "the AI machines" fully into my site.

They noticed right away! Visits began to explode.

All of this got me thinking in terms of spans of time. If 2015 was about Search Engine Optimisation. 2026 is about Generative Engine Optimisation.

How does it work? In simple terms, my site is now configured to do a different thing when an AI 'bot' appears, seeking to index my content.

---

"Are you a search engine?
Yes"
An AI bot?
Yes.
Oh, ok, here's a version of the content for this page, all nicely organized in the format you like so you can ingest it into your AI!"

---

One thing most folks might ask at this point - isn't this my content? Do I want to feed it to AI? Shouldn't I tell them no? For a time, I did. Then, two weeks ago, I confirmed two speaking gigs that came directly to me from ChatGPT.

That woke me up! I decided to move fast.
Here's what I did.

(Keep reading!)

There is no universal finishing.
There is only loss of relevance.

Nothing collapses heroically.
Nothing resolves cleanly.

Structures stop being referenced.

Not ending.

Decommissioning by non-use.

People call voices like #Cher “irrelevant” when they can no longer be controlled. The opposite is true. #Relevance is not measured by algorithms, but by #DecadesOfIntegrity. In times of transition, outdated systems discredit #Integrity and reward random noise and conformity. #NoTrump 🖖
