Why it is graded that way
Opens with “SEO is dead” and moves to a tool stack for ranking in AI search. The frame is false. Google’s own guide says its AI features are “rooted in our core Search ranking and quality systems.” AI search is growing, not replacing search: Neil Patel’s figures across 22 companies put it at 7.4% of leads, up from 3.1% a year earlier. The stack includes a Reddit auto-reply bot, which breaks Reddit’s rules on bots and self-promotion and is exactly the spam AI companies try to filter out.
Checked against the original clip and, where it makes a factual claim, against whatever that claim leans on. If I have this wrong, tell me and I will fix the row and say what changed.
