AI and SEO

AI will change SEO in many ways, both for the better and for the worse. On the positive side, AI can help marketers optimise their content for search engines, by analysing user intent, keywords, relevance, and quality. AI can also help create personalised and engaging user experiences, by delivering the right content to the right audience at the right time. AI can also help automate tedious and repetitive tasks, such as keyword research, link building, and content creation.


On the negative side, AI can also pose some challenges and threats to SEO. For one thing, AI can make it harder to rank well on search engines, by creating more competition and raising the standards of quality and relevance. AI can also make it easier for black hat SEO techniques to manipulate search results, by using sophisticated methods such as content spinning, cloaking, and scraping. AI can also make it more difficult to measure and evaluate SEO performance, by introducing more variables and uncertainties.


In conclusion, AI will change SEO in significant ways, both positively and negatively. Marketers need to adapt to the changing landscape of search engine optimization, by embracing the opportunities and overcoming the challenges that AI brings. AI will not replace human creativity and expertise, but rather augment and enhance them.

The AI Dilemma and "Gollem-Class" AIs

From the Center for Humane Technology Tristan Harris and Aza Raskin discuss how existing A.I. capabilities already pose catastrophic risks to a functional society, how A.I. companies are caught in a race to deploy as quickly as possible without adequate safety measures, and what it would mean to upgrade our institutions to a post-A.I. world. This presentation is from a private gathering in San Francisco on March 9th with leading technologists and decision-makers with the ability to influence the future of large-language model A.I.s. This presentation was given before the launch of GPT-4. One of the more astute critics of the tech industry, Tristan Harris, who has recently given stark evidence to Congress. It is worth watching both of these videos, as the Congress address gives a context of PR industry and it's regular abuses. "If we understand the mechanisms and motives of the group mind, it is now possible to control and regiment the masses according to our will without their

Beware the Orca, the challenge to ChatGPT and Palm2 is here

  So Google's 'we have no moat' paper was correct. If you train an LLM wisely then it's cost effective and cheap to produce a small LLM that is able to compete or even beat established, costly LLMs, as Microsoft has just found. It's another excellent video from AI Explained, who goes through some of the training procedures, which I won't get into here. Orca, is a model that learns from large foundation models (LFMs) like GPT-4 and ChatGPT by imitating their reasoning process. Orca uses rich signals such as explanations and complex instructions to improve its performance on various tasks. Orca outperforms other instruction-tuned models and achieves similar results to ChatGPT on zero-shot reasoning benchmarks and professional and academic exams. The paper suggests that learning from explanations is a promising way to enhance model skills. Smaller models are often overestimated in their abilities compared to LFMs, and need more rigorous evaluation methods. Explana

What is happening inside of the black box?

  Neel Nanda is involved in Mechanistic Interpretability research at DeepMind, formerly of AnthropicAI, what's fascinating about the research conducted by Nanda is he gets to peer into the Black Box to figure out how different types of AI models work. Anyone concerned with AI should understand how important this is. In this video Nanda discusses some of his findings, including 'induction heads', which turn out to have some vital properties.  Induction heads are a type of attention head that allows a language model to learn long-range dependencies in text. They do this by using a simple algorithm to complete token sequences like [A][B] ... [A] -> [B]. For example, if a model is given the sequence "The cat sat on the mat," it can use induction heads to predict that the word "mat" will be followed by the word "the". Induction heads were first discovered in 2022 by a team of researchers at OpenAI. They found that induction heads were present in
