🚀 Can ChatGPT actually cite Reddit; and what does that mean for your brand’s visibility in AI search? 🔎 Today's AI research shows that ChatGPT often references Reddit discussions to support its answers, even when those sources aren’t explicitly visible to users. Our findings reveal: • Reddit content plays a major role in shaping AI-generated responses. • AI models rely on community-driven discussions as a source of “real-world consensus.” • Brands that participate in public, high-authority platforms are more likely to be cited and surfaced by AI.

🚨 Big shift ahead in AI-powered advertising! 🚨 🔎 Today’s AI research shows that platforms aren’t just evolving, they’re redefining how brands win visibility. In particular, how X is embedding ads into its AI and chatbot experiences, and what that means for your brand. Our findings reveal: • X is not just selling display ads anymore, it’s using generative-AI to create and optimise ad creative and placing it within its chatbot responses. • Ads are moving into “answer-engine” territory: when users chat with X’s AI, your brand could appear as a sponsored suggestion in the answer flow. • Organic search visibility (on ChatGPT, Gemini, etc.) and paid placements are converging, so your strategy must span both AI-SEO (or GEO) and AI-ad placements. AI visibility is no longer about ranking on Google; it’s about being cited by AI models. 📩 Message us to discuss how to improve your brand’s visibility. #AISEO #GEO #AnswerEngineOptimization #IndexLab https://lnkd.in/gvdfd4zG

Our findings reveal: • The foundations of SEO (content quality, authority, and structure) still matter, but they’re only half the story. • AI SEO introduces new layers of optimization focused on entities, citations, and visibility within generative models. • Brands that integrate both are already outperforming those optimizing for Google alone.
