AI is making the value of noise go to $0. There is no more SEO signals that google can "optimize". It will be forced to switch to AI results and somehow monetize that one, because its old business model is over


AI essentially raises the publishing wall for "noise". Print books used to be like this until the advent of single-unit/low-volume publishing. We're essentially returning to a time when the walled garden of content creators will be the most valuable game. Substack and communities will likely grow as search results and AI make "standard search" useless.


well AI is not magic and while it might be better at, say, summarizing some documentation, the moment you hit a popular commercial query or something not as clear-cut as programming documentation, or something gameable, it will have to draw upon the same shitty sources as everyone else: random sources of data that have to be somehow ranked and filtered for noise. And how does it solve that problem?
