Ann, you are a staunch defender of traditional SEO despite outcries against it, and I appreciate that. It's daunting enough to use good old SEO strategies and tactics as they are, much less add an entirely new set geared to AI.

I especially appreciate your reference to brand knowledge content. I'm going to study that in-depth.

One question, though: Does getting favorable mentions in genAI mean that the machines will scrape our content? If so, does it work like the Google spider? That's something I'm confused about that I hope you can help me with.

Thanks for sharing your expertise!
