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 Whispers in the Machine: Why Prompt Injection Remains a Persistent Threat to LLMs

 Large Language Models (LLMs) are rapidly transforming how we interact with technology, offering incredible potential for tasks ranging from content creation to complex analysis. However, as these powerful tools become more integrated into our lives, so too do the novel security challenges they present. Among these, prompt injection attacks stand out as a particularly persistent and evolving threat. These attacks, as one recent paper (Safety at Scale: A Comprehensive Survey of Large Model Safety https://arxiv.org/abs/2502.05206) highlights, involve subtly manipulating LLMs to deviate from their intended purpose, and the methods are becoming increasingly sophisticated. At its core, a prompt injection attack involves embedding a malicious instruction within an otherwise normal request, tricking the LLM into producing unintended – and potentially harmful – outputs. Think of it as slipping a secret, contradictory instruction into a seemingly harmless conversation. What makes prompt inj...

AI Agents and the Latest Silicon Valley Hype

In what appears to be yet another grandiose proclamation from the tech industry, Google has released a whitepaper extolling the virtues of what they're calling "Generative AI agents". (https://www.aibase.com/news/14498) Whilst the basic premise—distinguishing between AI models and agents—holds water, one must approach these sweeping claims with considerable caution. Let's begin with the fundamentals. Yes, AI models like Large Language Models do indeed process information and generate outputs. That much isn't controversial. However, the leap from these essentially sophisticated pattern-matching systems to autonomous "agents" requires rather more scrutiny than the tech evangelists would have us believe. The whitepaper's architectural approaches—with their rather grandiose names like "ReAct" and "Tree of Thought"—sound remarkably like repackaged versions of long-standing computer science concepts, dressed up in fashionable AI clot...
