Joost de Valk on the impact of AI on Search Engine Optimization | Trusted Web Podcast S3E3

I discuss what the launch of ChatGPT and Bing’s AI chat integration means for search, and why I think Bing’s approach of sourcing its answers from the open web is more trustworthy than ChatGPT’s unsourced text generation. I share what it means for SEO when the primary interface to search becomes conversational, what Google’s internal reaction to being caught off guard looked like, and why I think AI models generating confident text without factual grounding is a serious problem for the web. The conversation also covers blockchain timestamping as a potential trust signal and what a more trustworthy web could look like.
