By in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning

by Ajdin Perco for Animalz Three Practices Google Now Considers Spam Google's update targets three practices the search giant now classifies as spam. 1.

But you aren’t quite satisfied with all of the terms. This is where a counteroffer comes in. Counteroffers are expected.

By in IT Security

by Jenny Williamson  for Search Engine Land If we’re not already, we will be facing a reckoning in the world of search marketing. Over the last several decades, our industry has grown and flourished on an overabundance of data.  Search marketing is a heavily data-centric world. Hyper-specific targeting and personalized advertising tactics are the norm and pillars on which strategy, budgets and team structures are based.  This reckoning that’s upon us is directly because of the excess data availability level that we have been accustomed to. Users have become increasingly aware of what data is collected and how it is…

Humans prefer AI-generated copy, survey finds

By in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, Information Technology Tag , ,

by Danny Goodwin for Search Engine Land Humans are more likely to prefer content generated by AI than written by a human, according to a surprising new survey. Why we care. While AI can’t entirely replace humans in content creation, clearly generative AI can create content that resonates with consumers.

Here’s an example of one such battle, where the task was to write an introduction for a blog post about the best cat food for indoor cats. AI won 54% to 46%: In the…
