The digital landscape is undergoing a revolutionary transformation as artificial intelligence reshapes how search engines connect users with information. In this riveting conversation, mathematician-coder Andreas from artios.io shares his unique perspective on the future of SEO in an AI-driven world, drawing from his experience building his first large language model five years ago.
Andreas cuts through industry confusion with a striking analogy: many SEO professionals are like pilots flying planes while the flight controls have switched from English to hieroglyphics – yet they insist nothing has fundamentally changed. This disconnect stems from a lack of understanding about how AI actually processes and evaluates web content.
"The content bar has risen dramatically," Andreas explains, challenging the notion that traditional keyword-targeted articles can succeed in the AI era. Where optimization once meant producing industrial-scale content targeting search phrases, AI demands genuinely valuable insights that actual professionals would want to share with peers. "A technology leader doesn't need to read 'what is ransomware recovery' – they want to learn from others who've navigated that challenge."
Perhaps most revealing is the paradigm shift in audience targeting. Rather than relying on keyword metrics (which Andreas calls "fictitious" and designed to maximize ad revenue), forward-thinking companies are data-mining conversations of their target buyers to understand what they truly care about. This approach creates content with proprietary value that AI recognizes as worth recommending.
For businesses watching their search traffic dwindle, Andreas offers both caution and hope. Those continuing with traditional tactics face increasing irrelevance, while those who understand AI's evaluation mechanisms are finding tremendous new opportunities. As search evolves from keyword snippets to conversational paragraphs, the companies that adapt their content strategy accordingly will thrive in this new paradigm.
