Today, Chris and I are going to be discussing human-driven AI-assisted SEO. And with that, here's my conversation with Chris Ralph, founder and president at Boulder SEO Marketing. Chris, welcome to the podcast.
Hey, Tyson. Thanks so much for the beautiful introduction and for having me on your show. I'm pumped to be here.
Yeah. So, I mean, today we're looking at the intersection of Human driven, but with AI, I think it feels like we're already just jumping right into one of the big questions that a lot of people have of like, how far do you use AI and where do you use human intervention? From your perspective, what's kind of some of the driving principles of knowing where to leverage what kind of tool or asset?
All right. Great question to get this conversation kicked off. So let me let me take a step back. Back in November of 2022, ChatGPT emerged out of nowhere. Right. It was I think they got the most users in the short amount of time. in history.
How did the rise of ChatGPT in 2022 change the SEO landscape?
So it's a revolution, right? I immediately recognized that this is a game changer. I remember back in 1996 when Google emerged, it felt like that. We're back to that year where something groundbreaking is happening. so i got invited to talk about ai and how it's going to transform digital marketing in the future by a localization industry association company and very little was known about you know ai chachi bt back then so i went to youtube and i found this conference called transform x It was basically the leading conference on AI, what was about to happen in digital marketing, etc. So I watched about 120 hours of YouTube videos to really become familiar with what is happening with AI, how it's going to impact digital marketing and anything in our lives.
That's when I realized this is going to be massive. Where we're at now, this is what this conversation is going to be about. It's nothing. We're going to see so much more how AI is not only going to transform search engine optimization, digital marketing in general, but the entire world. So I got very excited to dive into AI and SEO. And I soon figured out it has to be right now a human-driven but AI-assisted process. This is how agencies are going to differentiate themselves from other agencies. if you're not already using ai in basically anything that you do right now uh on an agency level you are behind the curve so so that's a bit a long intro but i think that's the foundation for our conversation here
and i guess With that notion, and so we're kind of just looking at like the tip of the iceberg from how this will be integrated into our day-to-day, our workflows, I mean, even outside of SEO. What do you feel like are the kind of primary, like the foundational pillars that you would advocate people either getting more familiar with, preparing themselves around? Like what are kind of these like foundational building blocks that would enable someone to be at the forefront?
Yeah, great question. So what I did after I learned about what's going to happen with AI, I mean, I believe I have a very clear picture of where we're going over the next, you know, potentially two, three years until we reach the stage of AGI, artificial general intelligence.
