So are we all fucked by AI ?

[todservices]

I have been working and learning everything I can about AI within the past 2 months.
And I personaly think we are all fucked and we'll need to have universal income because AI is going to be chainsaw massacre in the IT/web world.

Am I too pessimistic ?
What do you guys think ?

It depends on the job really. Copywriters and graphic designers will be hurt.

Programmers like me will be the last to be replaced. Not because we're the most important job, or because what we do can only be done by a human, but because the moment computers can program themselves from A to Z the human race is fucked.

Adapt or die still applies. It always will. It's the middleman's turn for some adapting.

If my friend you're talking about Google using AI for mobile searches I answered this elsewhere

https://www.msn.com/en-in/money/technology/ar-AA1rETQ7


I read this last night a few times and wanted to respond but held off until I read more.

The phrase in the article says, "SEOs and publishers have been scrambling to make sense of Google's AI Overviews, and these further changes will raise more questions about how websites get visibility in the generative AI era." They weren't kidding

ok how do I see things differently for SEO with this new Gemini AI approach.

First thing is keywords - well similar to snippets used the new search parameters will not be as much keywords but a conversation focusing on users "question" rather than a specific keyword. So now SEO will need to switch from keywords to "intent" and/or how people will start asking questions that will assist google to find your client. Meta titles and descriptions may need to cater more to conversational language and directly address common questions or search intents, as AI surfaces content more directly answering users' queries.

Secondly SEO people will now need to realize that the focus may shift even more toward content that answers questions in a comprehensive, user-friendly manner. AI will likely prioritize engagement metrics (time on page, interaction rates) more than keyword density, so creating content that genuinely engages and satisfies user queries will be crucial.

Third when it comes to content - Gemini AI, being multimodal, can analyze images, videos, and text together. This means visual elements (like infographics or images) on your pages may play a larger role in SEO rankings. This means my friends that AI-driven SERPs might prioritize pages that provide answers through a mix of formats.

You've heard it said before and commonly quoted E-A-T (Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness) These new changes suggest that authority and expertise: AI models like Gemini can better analyze the credibility of the content and its sources. This means that demonstrating expertise, such as through authoritative backlinks or author credentials, will become even more critical. In short - tools might need to provide metrics around E-A-T signals, not just keyword rankings. SEOs might focus more on brand reputation, author bios, and trust factors like reviews or citations. Also tools focused on structured data optimization and validation (like Schema.org) will be more important, as AI may lean on structured information to create better experiences in SERPs.

Fourth is voice search dominance. With mobile phones driving more voice searches, optimizing for voice queries will be critical. Natural language processing (NLP) advancements will favor conversational, question-and-answer-type content. SEO professionals will need to focus on crafting meta titles and descriptions that are conversational and match how users speak, especially for voice search optimization.

So a quick overview

- Conversational meta descriptions and titles will be essential for mobile.
- High-quality, user-centered content will trump traditional keyword-heavy tactics.
- Multimodal content (images, videos, text) will become central to ranking, especially on mobile devices.
- Structured data and E-A-T will carry more weight as AI analyzes content credibility and authority.
- Voice search optimization will continue to rise, requiring more natural, long-tail query optimization.


Overall, SEO will become more holistic and user-focused, with AI pushing for better, richer, and more meaningful content over technical keyword manipulations. As Google’s Gemini AI enhances mobile search, staying agile in how you optimize content will be key to maintaining visibility.

The problem is as this starts with mobile those SEO professionals and companies who use 3rd party software like SEMRush etc. simply won't be up to speed as the changes are occurring. Everyone knows I dislike using these SEO tools for their limitations - and now with AI - those tools will be more useless.

That's all I got right now on this topic until Google actually starts helping out and giving us more information that could be useful. Kind of like buying your kid a sports car then telling them the driving lessons will likely be next year.

PART 2

Here are some specific Google AI tools that can assist in SEO tasks, particularly in creating titles and descriptions:

1. Google Search Console:

Keyword Research: Use Google Search Console to identify relevant keywords and phrases that are driving traffic to your website.
Performance Insights: Analyze search performance data to understand which titles and descriptions are most effective


2. Google Keyword Planner:

Keyword Suggestions: Generate keyword ideas based on your target keywords.
Competition Analysis: Assess keyword difficulty and estimate search volume.


3. BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers):

Improved Understanding: BERT helps Google better understand the context and meaning of search queries, leading to more relevant search results.
Optimized Content: Create content that aligns with BERT's understanding of search intent.


4. Google AI Search Experiments:

Testing New Features: Participate in Google's AI search experiments to gain early access to new features and tools.
Provide Feedback: Contribute to the development of AI-powered search by providing feedback on experimental features.


5. AI-Powered SEO Tools:

Jasper.ai: Generate high-quality content, including titles and descriptions, based on prompts and keywords.
Copy.ai: Create engaging and persuasive copy for various marketing materials, including meta descriptions.
Fractional.ai: Optimize website content for search engines and improve user experience.


When using these tools, remember to:

Combine AI with human expertise: While AI can provide valuable insights, human judgment is essential for ensuring the quality and relevance of your content.


Focus on user intent: Create titles and descriptions that accurately reflect the content of your page and address the user's needs.
Test and iterate: Experiment with different variations of titles and descriptions to see what works best for your audience.


By leveraging these AI tools and following best practices, you can improve your SEO efforts and increase your website's visibility in search engine results.

Depends on how you’re embracing AI, I can honestly say as a company we’ve increased profits by roughly 60% in the past 2 years and our digital product line has increased tenfold in the same period of time.

yeah thank you, I have no doubt companies will increase their profits with AI and by letting people go lol

I think this is PRETTY FUCKING CLEAR for everyone

I am asking for employees/consultants/people working for these companies
Are we going to be all wiped out ?

We're a 2 person, small business, like probably 90+ percent of people in the industry, neither of us are being 'let go' because of AI

Again, you can run around like chicken little proclaiming that the 'sky is falling' or, adapt to the fact that AI is here to stay and, grow your business by learning how to utilize it in order to streamline processes, create saleable / marketable content or to enhance customer experience.

Those who are adapting to AI are making bank, either in terms of time savings, monetary value or, business growth and expansion and will be here for the log-term.

*edit*

The problem with a LOT of individuals in the online industry(s) is that they don't run their businesses like a business, but more like a hobby, these are the only ones who will become obsolete.

That tweet grew old pretty fast tbh.
It was a great tweet for the show I give you that.
I tried an AI to build app the other day, I'm super bad at describing precisely and the thing understood it extremely well... Even with my broken english.

So yeah the tweet was fun and all, but it seems to me much more of wishful thinking than anything else.

Yes i'm using a lot perplexity, much more than chatgpt actually

Actually it said it all in the first sentence :
While it is true that companies may increase their profits by leveraging AI and potentially reducing their workforce

So of course, right after, it nuances because this is how it was trained to do.

Thesis, Antithesis, Synthesis
we were taught that at 13-14 yo.

Some people just have to be victims 🤣

I've been learning that a lot here lately.

I'll be back.
