Habitat Talk Feeds AI Search

[SD51555]

I found this interesting. Any number of questions about IMOX turns up Habitat Talk as a source of info on google.

And that's why search engine AI answers are just about worthless.
It's just referencing the information... right, wrong, made up, or 25 years out of date, that some search engine spider collected.

down with the internet!

When I use different browsers or search things in incognito, I've been surprised how highly Google ranks Habitat Talk. Reddit is another one that
search engines love. I add reddit to my search term if I'm sure ever doing a deeper dive on something. I'm not sure what it is about forums, but Google and AI models seem to respect them quite a bit.

I may become the leading scientific voice on gypsum for planet earth if this keeps up.

You see Kevin O'Leary's project in Utah is pushing 40,000 acres? Allegedly doubling the energy use of the entire state.

A lot of them are brainwashed so I’m sure they will toe the line.

And our advice would become so valuable it would be priceless and, therefore, worthless!

Its called citogenesis. cite as in citation, and genesis as in the origin of something.

Citogenesis is a form of circular reporting where an unsupported or false claim, often originating on Wikipedia, is reported by a reliable source, then cited back on Wikipedia to "verify" the original claim. Coined by xkcd creator Randall Munroe, this phenomenon creates a false appearance of credibility, leading to the spread of misinformation

You can wrap personal opinions with the appearance of fact with a little preplanning.

around 15 years ago I engaged in a little citogensis on wikipedia. I used some irrelevant reference link citations to pass the 30 second review of the wikipedia. The bogus sources allowed my unsubstantiated opinion to stay on wikipedia (opinions about the perverse incentives created by corporate people manage policies). My personal opinions still survive in the wikipedia page, though they're highly refactored and rearranged at this point.

If anyone searches gypsum and thistles together, you will come up as the global authority on the subject.
