AI avatar man wants you to be afraid: "sleeper agents"! "backdoors"! "poisoned documents"! Terrifying!
The reality: AI companies are remaking SEO but worse. The author had to lie on Wikipedia to get his lie believed, and then complained that Wikipedia didn't have protections in place for something he didn't do in his "experiment."
yeah I'm not thrilled with the methodology "just buy a domain, lie on Wikipedia, and LLMs will buy your bullshit." I certainly don't doubt it, either.
It really is like the old SEO days, only the LLMs whitewash your lies for you. People trust what pops up at the top of Google results as being fact.
