is trend or trash. Optimizing product content specifically for AI summarizations, is it a trend or a trash?
AJ Ghergich 0:52
I'll go with the what I feel is like the spirit of the question.

How do the hosts frame the question of AI‑summarized product content as a trend or trash?

AJ Ghergich 0:55
I I think it's I think it's trend more than trash. It's just that there's a lot of trash in the trend. So like, you know what I mean? Like look, I can't sit here and say, Don't do it if I'm telling you AI's your customer, right? So like if AI is your customer, then yes, you should. But don't, you know, you know, like don't do the thing. Don't don't go out there and spam out a bunch of AI written content that like is try don't try to game the system. This is what happened in in SEO when we demystified the black box. I did it too. Very young in my career.

Why should marketers avoid spamming AI‑generated content and past SEO manipulation tactics?

AJ Ghergich 1:29
I gamed it. I try I ranked for I had clients ranking for the word poker and blackjack and anything you could imagine. We were ranking for it. Through manipulation, right? Through manipulation back in the day. So Let's not repeat the sin of the past. Let's not manipulate the AI with like some like content mix and this per no, just solve the intent. Solve the intent. But yes, you should think about it from the AI's perspective. Because what if the A like think of it this way? What if you had a user with accessibility issues? Would you would you re-look at your colors? Would you relook at your font size? Um, what if you're uh were serving an elderly population.

How can treating AI as an accessibility‑focused customer shape content structure?

AJ Ghergich 2:07
Like you would you would think about their accessibility issues, right? Think about AI from that perspective. What can it see? What can it not see? What is it? How does it like to consume information? In what order? Does it like structured data? Does it not? Feeds. Like, think about it that way. But it's a mindset thing, not it's it's about serving the intent of your rising dominant consumer AI itself. Do not get caught up in the I will manipulate this. I just feel like that's a that's a poor way to welcome your new customer.
Tyson Stockton 2:35
Yeah, and I mean it's in that sense too, it's like short term games versus long term strategy. And I would say too on this, it is a trend and you know, simply it is for that same reason that you're saying it's like that is now your customer or like a primary customer because it's then feeding everything to that in consumer.

What intent‑focused optimization framework helps serve AI’s information consumption patterns?

Tyson Stockton 2:56
So yeah, it's one of those things you just have to lean in on this point. Well, with that, that's gonna wrap up this episode of the Voice of Search podcast.
