So uhh. . . I recently got access to a college library system again and for whatever reason (that reason is a ghost obsession. Or rather, an obsession with a particular half ghost), I thought to myself, "You should look up Danny Phantom and see if anyone has referenced it in a scholarly article." And apparently this exists:
Grant, Krista, “Canon” and “Fanon” in the Danny Phantom/Detective Comics (Dc) Comics Crossover Fandom: Expanding Authorship and Authority in Transformative Fan Works. Available at SSRN: https://ssrn.com/abstract=4894061 or http://dx.doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.4894061
Abstract
In 2020, a new crossover fandom emerged, that of Danny Phantom x DC Comics (DPxDC), prompting thousands of fanfictions and participants. As neither media connected in their canons, how did this crossover fandom come to be? The content tags on these crossover fanfictions and on Tumblr posts collected Jan–April, 2024 were collected and analyzed in a mixed-methods discourse analysis approach with inductive coding for key words “canon” and “fanon”. This is the first time for which a crossover fandom is being investigated in writing studies, and it is one of the first articles to explore fanfiction within writing studies, especially in a mixed methods study. Underpinning this research are grassroots activism, critical theory, and agential theories of resistance practices. I found that DPxDC fans consciously resist canon material, enacting agency through distributed and communal writing practices and claiming a kind of authorship and authority over works, offering a new way of understanding agency and distributed authorship in writing studies.
Keywords: distributed authorship, writing studies, fanfiction, canon, fanon
I haven't finished reading it all yet, but if you've been active in the DPxDC phandom for a few years, you might be cited. Just saying, I recognize a few familiar usernames already.
#danny phantom#dpxdc#dp x dc#danny fenton#dc x dp#dcxdp#canon#fanon#canon vs fanon#dc stands for disregard canon

Austin's Chronicles: X-Possesion
CONTENT WARNING: This story includes themes of transformation and body control with a suggestive approach. If this type of narrative is not to your liking or you do not meet the recommended age, we suggest you do not continue. All images used (if any) belong to their respective owners. I claim no authorship over them and they are only used for illustrative purposes.
If you decide to go ahead, welcome to Possessed Desires, where mind and body are never completely under your control.
This is the first story in a series of stories called: Austin's Chronicles: Morphosis Heroes. I hope you like it, it's definitely something I'm excited to share with you and start working on.
Austin's Chronicles: X-Possesion (English Version)
Austin was a kid with a lot of problems at Xavier Academy, a social misfit who still didn't know his power. Cerebro had detected him months ago as a mutant but no trace of his mutation had appeared in all that time. The other students took him as a hopeless case and the teachers sometimes gave him some encouragement not to give up hope, but that only made the boy more desperate.
— Calm down – Professor Scott said calmly to the teenager. They were the only ones in that classroom – Your power will come sooner or later.
— It's coming sooner rather than later.
The boy muttered, skinny. All puny and no muscle at all.
— You must be patient, Austin.
— What's the use of being patient? I just see how others make fun of me, how I don't fit in and get picked on! That's what being patient is!?
The boy exploded in fury at his teacher.
— Austin – Cyclops said in an authoritative tone – That's enough. You have to be more patient, you have to....
— No! I've had enough!
And then it happened. Like some kind of energy wave, something came out from inside the boy, a kind of blue energy that found its way to Cyclops' chest. Embedding itself in him.
— Ugh! Austin, you have to stop this!
— I-I don't know how! I-I'm not controlling it!
The boy said in panic, Scott felt weaker and weaker. While Austin felt light, like he was floating.
— Uhh... - An awkward groan from Cyclops sounded, his expression turned silly – Austin...
He swept out the words until strangely the boy seemed to levitate and shoot out at his teacher's chest, vanishing into him. The muscular body, wrapped in his tight blue suit, twitched violently.
That lasted for a while until it finally seemed to stop, only the man's agitated breathing remained.
— Wh-what the fuck...? – he mumbled heavily before panicking – Ah! – the hero looked carefully at his hands, absorbed by the yellow gloves – Uh... Uh... This is bad.
He swallowed. Anyone who had seen that scene would have thought that Cyclops had lost his mind, but there was only one detail: That wasn't Cyclops.
That was Austin.
The boy felt dazed in that body. His hands slowly went to his new chest, starting to massage his muscles.
— Ah! – he ended up finding his new nipples. Something Austin didn't know was that Scott Summers' body was extremely sensitive. He touched that area again, which only made his legs tremble and he let out a moan.
He continued with that exploration, one hand on his chest and the other down his abs until it ended at his fat bulge.
— Phew... Professor... – he muttered to himself, though a mischievous smile played on his lips – Do you like seeing me like this, Austin?
He took his pecs in his hands again to weigh them. He immediately positioned himself against the table, lifting his new buttocks.

— Or how I move it, do you like it? – he said wiggling his new plump buttocks – Let me show you more – with both hands, he spanked his ass, letting out a loud moan, sticking his pelvis against the table and starting to rub himself against it.
Austin was lost in those sensations, panting heavily. Seeming almost anxious, he began to rub his new entrance with his hand.
He let out a sigh at the sensation of the suit slowly pushing into that area. The boy felt like he was in glory as he enjoyed Cyclops' body.
He flexed his new arms, totally thrilled to see his new muscles being marked by the blue fabric, tensing up.
— Mfh. Let's see how I smell... – he muttered to stick his nose in his armpit, letting out a gasp at the stench. Starting to smell like crazy.
There was nothing left of the respectable, heroic Cyclops, just a boy with raging hormones at the helm.
Unable to contain himself any longer. The boy forcefully grabbed the front of the suit, ripping it all the way down to expose his large chest and abs.

— This is getting in the way...
He mumbled, sliding the fabric further down to tear the part of the pants, leaving his new masculinity on display.
The guy continued to attend to himself like crazy, like there was no tomorrow. Being a mess, between trying to touch his chest, explore himself, smell himself or just let his saliva run down his new chin as if he had fried brain cells. — Ah, ah, I'm Scott Summers and I want to be controlled! Ah!

He was rubbing his entrance, enjoying the feel of the glove against himself. Until he heard the living room door thunder, slow.
—Professor?...
To be continued.

I hope you enjoyed this story as much as I enjoyed writing it. If you liked it, don't forget to follow it and share it for more people to discover.
I'm always open to suggestions and ideas, so if you have any fantasy or scenario in mind, let me know in the comments or in messages.

Four ideas that I'm giving to the fandom to "tear apart". You can use them if you indicate my authorship, thank you~
"You're one of mine"
What if the protagonist, listening to the Doctor's speeches, still decides to go over to his side, because he overhears the conversation of the surviving toys that he is just expendable, that he is a human being, and therefore not one of them.
What if Harley Sawyer remembers the years when he and the protagonist worked together on the Big Bodies initiative? What if the protagonist was the Doctor's favorite, but disappeared in 1995, and Sawyer had long since mentally buried him? And ten years later, he doesn't recognize him. And this only happens when the protagonist calls his name for Doctor.
"So you're one of mine," the Doctor says in an admiring whisper, without specifying whether he's one of his experiments or one of a group of scientists.
I'd like to see how the protagonist goes from being a good guy to a man with a gray morality or even a villain.
The romantic line between the protagonist and the Doctor can be either one-sided or two-sided.
Ficbook
Gerad Lockehart as Gilderoy Lockhart
Let's add a pinch of magic to the fandom. What if Gilderoy Lockhart was the detective at the factory? At first glance, the Muggle factory hides experiments on chimeras and very dark magic behind the facade.
If Gilderoy survives, he will definitely write a book about it.
Specifically for this AU, let's imagine that Gilderoy isn't a cowardly liar, as in the Harry Potter canon, but a really famous hero in the magical world, who, unfortunately, writes mediocre novels for housewives.
Lockhart enters the factory following rumors (to dispel or confirm them in a new book), under a different name and possibly under a polyjuice potion.
Ficbook
Jekyll and Hyde or Gerad and Harley
What if Gerad Lockehart and Harley Sawyer are the same person, but with a split personality? The doctor-psychopath and a detective investigating horrific crimes at a toy factory.
Ficbook
Harley Sawyer/Gerad Lockehart
What if Gerad Lockehart hadn't just disappeared without a trace, but had fallen into the clutches of Dr. Sawyer?
Whether he became one of his experiments or was able to come to an agreement, whether he remained in captivity as a human, whether he became a monster or a partner, having understood and accepted the Doctor's ideology - it's up to you to decide.
Unhealthy (romantic) interest in the studio.

Sorry to bother you, but I've seen your Umineko list on letterboxd and wondered if you also happened to have some similar bookrecs.
THE ANNOTATED LOLITA especially if you save the forward for after you finish and approach it as a mystery. pale fire for the issue of authorship. lectures on don quixote for nabokov's attitude towards enchantment. can't think of another author working with as much of the same ingredients as umineko while squarely opposing ryukishi in sentiment.
la vita nuova and the divine comedy. there are so many (some surely unintentional) subtleties in the intertext of dante's oeuvre and umineko it's not even funny.
the inugami family obviously. honkaku and shin honkaku detective fiction should be worth your while in general but more as a context for umineko rather than something that mirrors it. i should probably give and then there were none another shake too i just thought it was mid.
fingersmith aka the book the handmaiden was adapted from and specifically for the plot twist left out of the movie.
demian with the rgu as the bridge.
and finally the flower that bloomed nowhere for a web novel murder mystery/fantasy directly inspired by umineko.
#not even getting into nonfiction rn. every day another brick is added to the umineko mind palace#✉️#umineko

I’ve just received this comment on my last chapter for my fanfic over on AO3 and I’m not sure what to make of it…
This is an immersive story with strong pacing, but I did notice a detection flag saying over 60% is probably AI-written. If that’s not accurate and this is original work, maybe you could post a draft screenshot or outline as a way to help clarify and back up your authorship.
A detection flag? Who is using a detection flag? I know AO3 was scrubbed (correct word?) recently for some AI programmes (but not ChatGPT).
I’ve not used AI once. I never have. Not touched it. It’s all me and my own thoughts and writing. I’m happy to prove this but also… it feels like a trap?? Maybe I’m just being paranoid, and it’s a genuine request, but this comment has taken me by surprise 🫠
#my writing#I do not use AI#not sure why there’s a detection flag on my work#or what that means#please help me out#I’m not sure how or if to respond#Ai is doing my head in

A couple of years ago, I attended a (virtual) conference where one of the main topics was the impact of so-called 'AI' tools on my particular industry. I work in scholarly publishing (on the publisher side -- I know, I know; for what it's worth, I am at least at a company that's actively trying to drive reform, is anti-impact factor, tries to reinforce the value of the work over the journal name, etc) and the application of 'generative AI' to facilitate plagiarism/fake papers is an obvious risk in this sector. Such software could easily be used to overwhelm the (meagre) defences journals have against such things, especially with the pressures placed on academics to get their work into 'high impact' publications above all else. The threat of 'paper-mills' (operations paid to seek publication by fraudulent means) ramping up via the use of ChatGP was clear and present amid those heady days of the initial hype-push.
What's stuck with me from that conference is a panel participant pointing out that 'AI' hasn't created any *new* problems; it's just accelerated existing ones. That is, fraud in science and science publishing has been an issue as long as scholarly publishing has existed as an industry. You don't need a fancy tool to generate you a fake paper. It helps, no doubt, but it's not a necessary step. And yes, it makes detection harder. But the actual solution here -- the way to put a stop to fake papers, dodgy authorship claims, and all the other variations on trying to beef up an academic's publication record for career gains -- doesn't lie in some technological arms-race between plagiarism-detection and paper-fabrication. We need to change the culture. We need to put a stop to the rewards for this kind of behaviour, by assessing academics by the actual value and quality of their research, without the proxy-step provided by place of publication.
(For the uninitiated, it is a huge problem in science that certain journals -- such as the big three of Nature, Cell and Science -- are seen as *the* place where groundbreaking research is published. Not only does this expose the English-language bias within global research, it creates the idea that to 'make it', you must publish somewhere like that, rather than just, you know, doing good solid work. Journals, big name or not, also have a history of selecting for headline-making research. So on the one hand, institutions are judging their employees' careers by their citations, not their work, and on the other, you absolutely cannot trust journals not to get dollar-signs in their eyes when someone comes along claiming that e.g. a certain vaccine actually causes an unrelated health condition. To pick a deliberate, very-specific example. On top of all this, peer review is *terrible* at catching faked results because it has to be approached in good-faith. Most of the time, fraud is only caught in hindsight, once the work has had time to circulate in the community, at which point wider damage has been done.)
Now, one of the reasons I haven't blogged much about so-called 'AI' is that my hatred for it is pre-rational. What I mean is, I hate 'generative AI' with the power of a thousand burning suns. I hate it on a conceptual level. The idea of feeding real people's work, their art, into a machine and have it churn out an approximation of that same work and art is abhorrent to me. I view it as a mockery of skills I have devoted my life to. If it could produce truly breathtaking imagery and crystal-sharp prose, I would still feel the same revulsion at the thought of removing intent from an act of communication, at the idea we should be content with bathetic mirrors in place of engaging with actual human beings and what they can do.
Separate from this, I believe there is good cause to be highly doubtful about the tools that have been pushed on the public over the last few years. I haven't used them myself (see above) but everything I've seen suggests they just aren't very good. It's painfully obvious how they can be/will be/are being used to devalue people's labour, thus strengthening corporations. There's the destruction of the information ecosystem that comes from integrating software intended to reproduce tone instead of facts into major search engines. There's the impact on the actual ecosystem of pouring resources and power into this technology. There's the simple detail that a lot of the people pushing this stuff are, frankly, just the worst.
However, I am extremely, painfully aware I am the wrong person to make rational arguments against these tools because what's actually driving my objection is disgust. I'm going to assume the worst about this particular kind of automation simply on the basis that I can't stand its existence.
There may be good, productive uses for this kind of technology! I can't tell you what they might be because I'm too busy looking for the bit where my worst opinions are validated. That's where I am on this. I actively have to guard my tongue around some of my colleagues, to keep from railing at how gullible I think they're being, buying into these things.
So yeah. Not a good place for making solid arguments. But that point from two years ago -- 'AI' is not creating any new problems.
I think it's easy to lose track of that. Consider the environmental impact. In order for you to read this, some server, somewhere, needs to be powered and cooled. The device you are reading this on is likely made from relatively rare materials that have a history of being source via destructive means (both to the environment and the people involved in the extraction process). I don't say that as a guilt-trip; I'm writing this via the same means. It's simply that the current landscape of our societies is dependent on things that comes at a cost to the planet and our fellow humans. That cost is made worse by rampant capitalism, but even under ideal conditions, mitigating it will require rethinking massive amounts of infrastructure.
This is not an excuse to make things worse. I want to be very clear about that. Nor am I claiming these issues are insoluble. It's simply a good example of 'AI' being an exaggerated case of an existing problem, namely how to balance the utility of modern communication technology against the extractive activity required to build it. As with many things, the glib answer is 'don't do capitalism' and, well, err, that kind of is the answer, reorientating away from the maximisation of profit above all else and from 'endless growth' doctrine. But crucially, that answer has nothing to do with 'AI'. If the hype-train collapsed tomorrow and everyone realised they've been buying snake-oil, and somehow the tech sector didn't collectively burn to the ground about it, we'd still have a problem to solve.
Because the problem isn't new.
That 'summarisation' tool Google or Adobe have swung on you, that shortens text with no regard for the actual information contained within what it's reducing is not some novel horror; it's just an acceleration of the same approach to design that sees 'engagement' as the primary driver, detached from what is actually materially happening to cause everyone to flock to a single place. MidJourney or what-have-you, allowing X or Y group to churn out endless cloying representations of their ideal reality, is just bad Photoshop composites with less effort required on the part of the person pushing the button. People will airbrush reality whether they have to do it with a prompt or an actual airbrush. We know this! Thomas Kinkade made a whole flipping career off it! It's the heart of mass-media advertising, to cheaply reproduce visions of simpler worlds for the sake of selling you something.
The truth is, grifters are going to grift, with whatever tools they have at their disposal. As long as there is a market for snake-oil, an incentive to cheat, a reason for people to be dissatisfied with their lot, there is going to be space for someone to sell an everything-app. A quick solution. An easy fix. We don't address that by playing whack-a-mole with every single dumb vapourware 'solution' that results; we address it by collapsing the space that permits those things to find their marks.
I think it is an objectively bad thing if paper-mills can work faster and easier and flood journal submissions with more junk than ever before. But it is also objectively bad for academia to be held hostage by a for-profit system that silos and constrains their work while being treated as the bar for judging how well they are doing their jobs. And the latter is the problem that actually *needs* to be solved, if we're going to have a hope of addressing the former.
Anyway, thank you for coming to this edition of 'Words sorts through his disgust to work out if there's a sensible position obscured beneath, for the sake of not being a raging arsehole to people who like shiny toys and haven't been in a love-hate relationship with their ability to draw for thirty years'.
#ai#generative ai#artificial stupidity#I do a fine impression of a Luddite some days#but then I actually know what the Luddites were protesting against so#hoorah for Captain Swing!

sometimes I wonder about the potential weird arms-race scenario of AI authorship identification...tbh I've been kind of concerned (for lack of a better word) about the risks since I first found out about the Federalist Papers getting analyzed for authorship in 2018 (iirc). someone could identify my anonymously published essay by pattern-matching it with something I published under my real name, but I might also be able to use a similar tool to alter my essay so that it can't be identified as my style! I feel like this could become relevant for internet-pseudonym-using writers in the near future, though one hopes it won't
oh that's a good point, i haven't thought much about the possibility of AI tools for disguising authorship but that could absolutely be a thing... though of course, how much would they end up influencing the work? there's a gradient between style and substance rather than a sharp line and i'm sure some changes the theoretical anonymizing algorithm made could be argued to have changed the meaning of the work in some way. (very clearly so for creative writing, but also for nonfiction!) and as you say this could easily become an arms race like the attempts to produce an AI capable of identifying AI-generated text (which right now seems to be going very poorly, lol).
and i ALSO remember hearing about that Federalist Papers thing! and 2018, that's ages ago in AI terms. yeah i feel it's very likely that much improved versions of tools like that are being used by the CIA or whomever. i'm going to try to look this up, please hold.
[plays]
alright! i have learned that the term for this is stylometry. here's a 2024 paper titled "Deep Learning for Stylometry and Authorship Attribution: a Review of Literature", but neither it nor the papers it cites are truly impressing me with any modern AI tools-- most of the papers it cites are older (pre-2020) and this field has changed fast! this 2024 example of detecting GPT-4o-generated phishing emails (though, as you mention, this is always an arms race) is somewhat interesting, but this is about detecting AI authorship rather than identifying a human author (though ofc these things are related).
i'm... almost disappointed? i was so ready to deliver a villain monologue about the death of anonymity and how it's a matter of years before you won't be able to speak more than a few sentences without being identified but i am coming up short on material to scare you with. perhaps it's out there but just not widely published yet.

Blog Post #4 - Week 6 (due 2/27)
Race and Power in the Digital Age
How does the invisibility of race in cyberspace impact online discussions about racial identity and discrimination?
The invisibility of race in cyberspace can lead to both the erasure of racial identity and the silencing of discussions about discrimination. Kolko, Nakamura, and Rodman (2000) explain that online interactions often treat race as a binary - either “an invisible concept because it’s simultaneously unmarked and undiscussed, or … a controversial flashpoint for angry debate and overheated rhetoric” (p.1). Without visible racial markers, many assume a “race-neutral” space, which can reinforce dominant narratives that disregard systemic racism. However, as the authors argue, “whether we like it or not, in the real world, race does matter a great deal” (p. 4). This invisibility can allow for both progressive identity exploration and the perpetuation of exclusionary practices.
How does the game Shadow Warrior use humor and parody to justify racial stereotypes, and what are the consequences of this approach?
Shadow Warrior uses humor and parody to disguise its racial stereotypes, making them appear harmless or acceptable. The game’s creators claim it is a parody of kung-fu films, yet it “continued to promote its racist and sexist agendas” (Ow, 2000, p. 54). This justification allows players to engage with these stereotypes without critically questioning their impact. As Ow states, the game presents “a colonizing narrative where conquest and exploration, rather than upholding justice, become the primary goals” (p. 58). Ultimately, the game’s humor masks deeper issues of racism and exclusion in digital spaces.
How does Pokemon GO reflect real-world racial and social divisions?
Pokemon GO may seem like a fun, lighthearted game, but it unintentionally highlights racial and economic inequalities. The game requires players to move around different neighborhoods, but this can be dangerous for some people. As Omari Akil noted, “Let’s just go ahead and add Pokemon GO to the extremely long list of things white people can do without fear of being killed” (p. 1). Minority players, particularly Black and Asian Americans, often face suspicion or even violence in certain areas. This shows how digital games are not separate from real-world issues but actually reinforce them.
How does the Internet make white supremacist messages more accessible to the public, and why is this a concern?
The Internet makes white supremacist content easy to find and share, which increases its influence. As David Duke states, the Internet allows white supremacists to spread their message faster than ever before, giving “millions access to the truth that many didn’t even know existed” (Daniels, 2009, p.1). This is dangerous because anyone, including young people, can come across these ideas, sometimes without realizing they are reading racist content. “Cloaked websites further obscure defining what constitutes white supremacy in the digital era” with messages as educational resources (Daniels, 2009, p. 6). Search engines often present all websites as equally credible, people may struggle to tell accurate historical information from white supremacist propaganda.
Why is it difficult to track and limit white supremacist content online?
Tracking and limiting white supremacist content online is challenging because of the strategies these groups use to hide their message and identities. Many white supremacists use “difficult-to-detect authorship and hidden agendas” to spread their ideology while appearing as legitimate sources (Daniels, 2009, p. 4). Additionally, estimating the number of hate sites is difficult because “ownership, residence, and server location of a domain name - all three of which can be different” (p. 6). The U.S. also protects many of these websites under free speech laws, making it harder to remove them, even when their content promotes racism and misinformation.

Blog Post (due 3/6)
What are some of the ways privilege functions in "Nosedive" to create an oppressive and unequal system?
People in this fictitious world are deemed worthy or unworthy based on the luxurious things they have access to, how gregarious they are, and how they physically present themselves. While the merit system claims to be objective, social mobility becomes impossible for those not born into five star communities, limiting their access to certain financial, social, and medical benefits. While natural five stars do not have to do much to maintain their status, those from mediocre backgrounds have to constantly fight to achieve higher status and stay there.
In the future, do you foresee our “merit system” as one that mimics the one in “Nosedive,” or are we already there?
Our credit system in conjunction with our social media system that determines value based on factors such as access to luxury, beauty, fashion, or wealth creates a system very similar to the one seen in “Nosedive.” Our credit system, an algorithm produced by humans, still holds strong patriarchal, racist, classist values that disproportionately affects those in marginalized communities. Based on one’s credit score, people have restricted access to loans and other financial benefits, similar to in “Nosedive,” making financial security difficult to impossible for some.
What are some of the gendered dynamics at play in the fictitious world within “Nosedive”?
Women experience a significantly greater pressure to perform, manifesting as being excessive, ingenious, or mawkish, something that their male counterparts do not feel in the same way. Often, you can see the men in “Nosedive” looking judgmental of Lacie when she performs excitement or gratitude in a way that is obviously insincere, but still expected and required of her in order to attain optimal ratings. Additionally, as seen through the men exclusively wearing blue and the women wearing pink at the weddings, the society in “Nosedive” appears to have regressed significantly in terms of what is permitted and deemed acceptable aesthetic choices for one on the basis of their gender identity.
According to the article “Race and Social Media,” what is racialization and why does it occur?
Racialization is a process of “race-ing” or categorizing people based on perceived characteristics, and consequently giving them a title based on those conclusions that may be similar or dissimilar to have we view ourselves. Racialization helps folks create a sense of identity based on how we are perceived through our actions, gestures, and presentation. Racialization, understood as “interpellation,” is not inherently negative or positive, but negative interpellation can arise when we feel excessively and uncomfortably visible in certain spaces.
How is white supremacy upheld within the digital era?
White supremacy and other adjacent political agendas utilize insidious methods to reinforce regressive, reactionary ideals that target certain marginalized demographics. This is accomplished through difficult-to-detect authorship and latent agendas. According to the Council of Europe, a preponderance of white supremacist, anti-Black websites are based in the United States (estimated 2,500 sites).

Paul Auster, American author of The New York Trilogy, dies aged 77
The writer of The New York Trilogy, Leviathan and 4 3 2 1 – known for his stylised postmodernist fiction – has died from complications of lung cancer
Paul Auster, the author of 34 books including the acclaimed New York Trilogy, has died aged 77.
The author died on Tuesday due to complications from lung cancer, his friend and fellow author Jacki Lyden confirmed to the Guardian.
Auster became known for his “highly stylised, quirkily riddlesome postmodernist fiction in which narrators are rarely other than unreliable and the bedrock of plot is continually shifting,” the novelist Joyce Carol Oates wrote in 2010.
His stories often play with themes of coincidence, chance and fate. Many of his protagonists are writers themselves, and his body of work is self-referential, with characters from early novels appearing again in later ones.
“Auster has established one of the most distinctive niches in contemporary literature,” wrote critic Michael Dirda in 2008. “His narrative voice is as hypnotic as that of the Ancient Mariner. Start one of his books and by page two you cannot choose but hear.”
The author was born in Newark, New Jersey, in 1947. According to Auster, his writing life began at the age of eight when he missed out on getting an autograph from his baseball hero, Willie Mays, because neither he nor his parents had carried a pencil to the game. From then on, he took a pencil everywhere. “If there’s a pencil in your pocket, there’s a good chance that one day you’ll feel tempted to start using it,” he wrote in a 1995 essay.
While hiking during a summer camp aged 14, Auster witnessed a boy inches away from him getting struck by lightning and dying instantly – an event that he said “absolutely changed” his life and that he thought about “every day”. Chance, “understandably, became a recurring theme in his fiction,” wrote the critic Laura Miller in 2017. A similar incident occurs in Auster’s 2017 Booker-shortlisted novel 4 3 2 1: one of the book’s four versions of protagonist Archie Ferguson runs under a tree at a summer camp and is killed by a falling branch when lightning strikes.
Auster studied at Columbia University before moving to Paris in the early 1970s, where he worked a variety of jobs, including translation, and lived with his “on-again off-again” girlfriend, the writer Lydia Davis, whom he had met while at college. In 1974, they returned to the US and married. In 1977, the couple had a son, Daniel, but separated shortly afterwards.
In January 1979, Auster’s father, Samuel, died, and the event became the seed for the writer’s first memoir, The Invention of Solitude, published in 1982. In it, Auster revealed that his paternal grandfather was shot and killed by his grandmother, who was acquitted on grounds of insanity. “A boy cannot live through this kind of thing without being affected by it as a man,” Auster wrote in reference to his father, with whom he described himself having an “un-movable relationship, cut off from each other on opposite sides of a wall”.
Auster’s breakthrough came with the 1985 publication of City of Glass, the first novel in his New York trilogy. While the books are ostensibly mystery stories, Auster wielded the form to ask existential questions about identity. “The more [Auster’s detectives] stalk their eccentric quarry, the more they seem actually to be stalking the Big Questions – the implications of authorship, the enigmas of epistemology, the veils and masks of language,” wrote the critic and screenwriter Stephen Schiff in 1987.
Auster published regularly throughout the 80s, 90s and 00s, writing more than a dozen novels including Moon Palace (1989), The Music of Chance (1990), The Book of Illusions (2002) and Oracle Night (2003). He also became involved in film, writing the screenplay for Smoke, directed by Wayne Wang, for which he won the Independent Spirit award for best first screenplay in 1995.
In 1981, Auster met the writer Siri Hustvedt and they married the following year. In 1987 they had a daughter, Sophie, who became a singer and actor. Auster’s 1992 novel Leviathan, about a man who accidentally blows himself up, features a character called Iris Vegan, who is the heroine of Hustvedt’s first novel, The Blindfold.
Auster was better known in Europe than in his native United States: “Merely a bestselling author in these parts,” read a 2007 New York magazine article, “Auster is a rock star in Paris.” In 2006, he was awarded Spain’s Prince of Asturias prize for literature, and in 1993 he was given the Prix Médicis Étranger for Leviathan. He was also a Commandeur de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres.
In April 2022, Auster and Davis’s son, Daniel, died from a drug overdose. In March 2023, Hustvedt revealed that Auster was being treated for cancer after having been diagnosed the previous December. His final novel, Baumgartner, about a widowed septuagenarian writer, was published in October.
Auster is survived by Hustvedt, their daughter Sophie Auster, his sister Janet Auster, and a grandson.

The craziest thing about this plagiarism thing is this person genuinely seems to be talking like you. If i didnt see typos i woumd have thought they just put your writing through an AI to spit out the story and all your messages. Its lowkey freaking me out
Roo babe you are NOT the first person to bring this up to me and honestly I’ve been chewing on it for a bit now because it opens up a super fascinating discussion—not just about plagiarism, but also about authorship, mimicry, and the whole “is this AI-generated?” panic that’s been circling in digital spaces. So buckle up, I’m gonna go full nerd-out mode for a second. (ueheheeh)
First off, I want to be really clear about something:
I’m not going to comment on whether or not this person is using AI. It’s not my place, and frankly, there’s no reliable way to prove it. AI detection tools? Garbage. You can run Shakespeare or Emily Dickinson through one and it’ll tell you it was “95% AI-generated” like okay sure girl, tell that to her ghost. They struggle with nonstandard syntax, figurative language, sentence length variation—you know, all the things that make writing good.
That being said, yes, I’ve seen the comparisons. Yes, some things have felt uncanny. And no, I’m not here to accuse—but I do think it’s worth unpacking why certain works can feel eerily derivative or off in tone, and how authentic author voice is something that can’t really be faked—not by AI, not by a human, not successfully and not sustainably.
Because here’s the thing:
You can mimic the notes, but you can’t recreate the melody.
I actually talked about this with Vani yesterday—the difference between writing inspired by something and trying to simulate the internal architecture of someone else’s voice. And for anyone who’s wondering, no, my style didn’t come from thin air either😭. I think I’m heavily influenced by authors like H.D. Carlton (and I don’t mean content-wise—I mean that whole unfiltered, “nice going bitch” inner monologue thing that sounds like your own brain is narrating your downfall? Yup. Guilty). But I also read a lot. I’ve consumed hundreds of books across multiple genres and languages. It shows. It should show.
But what’s mine—what no one can copy, whether AI or person—is my actual authorial fingerprint. That’s the part that’s not just voice, but rhythm. Structure. Quirk. Obsession.
Like:
My slowburns are so drawn-out they start growing moss. That’s intentional. That’s tension. That’s craft.
My metaphors, my scent anchors, the whole aura thing in KGP that’s sometimes a bit cringe (I WAS YOUNGER. LET ME LIVE) the foreshadowing that goes back 20 chapters (YES, I really did plan that thing from chapter 5. Please ask Koops. She has suffered).
The inner monologues that spiral in this very specific way—you know the one. Where it’s like “I am an emotional disaster but also I’m hilarious and aware and self-deprecating and now I’m going to make you cry.
The way my character decisions are rooted in deep, documented psychology. I literally write trauma-informed character arcs that come from hours of academic research and behavioral theory. Ask me why someone acts a certain way and I’ll send you a thesis. I HAVE BOOOOKSSS at home and printed academic papers. I’m a huge nerd for psychological depth.
The literal strikethroughs with UNICODE and the nonsensical random thoughts I add in parenthesis with sometimes way too poor grammar.
The syntax tics—slightly off ((;´༎ຶٹ༎ຶ`)) because I’m polyglot, so sometimes my brain switches mid-sentence structure between Spanish, French, and English. I’m aware of it. It’s part of what makes my sentence formation just a little “wrong” in a right way. A kind anon once said it was “beautiful weird grammar” and I still don’t know if I should thank them or cry.
All of that? That’s not style. That’s signature. That’s how you know it’s me.
And no—no algorithm, no mimic, no person trying to pass off a lookalike will ever be able to reproduce that. Because those things are the result of my lived experience, my linguistic patterns, my thought rhythms, my emotional palette, my obsessive characterization spreadsheets, and no offense but there’s no “ChatKiki” prompt in existence that can replicate that chaos. (Yet. Please don’t try.)
Also fun fact: AI models still struggle with basic semantic memory coherence. You can ask them how many “r”s are in “strawberry” and they’ll hallucinate the answer. They have trouble with consistency across long texts. They can’t maintain internal character logic, emotional throughlines, or nuanced symbolic motifs over extended narrative arcs. You know what can do that? My obsessive brain and my hundreds of tabs open at all times.
And even if a person—human or bot—tries to copy it? It doesn’t work. Long-term. Eventually. Because you cannot mimic the why. You can replicate the what—but the heartbeat behind it? That’s mine. That’s years of growth, grief, therapy, rage, books, trauma, hope, and yes—pride!! I own the way I write because it comes from inside, not from a prompt or a pre-trained pattern.
So yeah. It might be easy to get spooked when something sounds close. But when it comes down to it—I’m still here. I’m still building.
And there’s no facsimile in the world that can hold a candle to the real thing when it’s rooted in lived voice.

What's Happening to SEO? 8 SEO Trends for 2025
🔄 Updated 2/26/2025
🕓 8-Min Read
🦘 Section Jumper
Optimize for E-E-A-T Signals
AI Overview and SEO
Forum Marketing and SERPs Updates
Is Traditional SEO Still Relevant
Zero-Click Searches
Map Pack and Local Heat Maps
Voice and Mobile Search Optimization
What's Better for AI: BOFU or TOFU Content?
Let’s call it what it is —SEO isn’t some clever marketing hack anymore; it’s now a battlefield where the rules change faster than your morning coffee order. And if you’ve been patting yourself on the back for nailing your SEO strategy, look, those same strategies might already be obsolete. Yeah, that’s how fast the game is flipping.
For years, we’ve been told that backlinks and keywords were the golden tickets. And now?
Gen Z is asking TikTok instead of Google, search engines are reading context like a nosy detective, and over half of all searches don’t even bother clicking on anything.
Welcome to SEO trends for 2025—a world where your next competitor might be an AI tool, a 3-second video, or even Google itself deciding to hoard its users.
youtube
1. Optimize for E-E-A-T Signals
There’s no nice way to say this: if your content isn’t radiating credibility, Google probably isn’t interested.
Now comes E-E-A-T—Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness. While it sounds like a mouthful, it’s the compass guiding Google’s ranking algorithm in 2025. If your content strategy ignores these signals, you're handing over your traffic to someone else—no questions asked.
What Is E-E-A-T, and Why Does It Matter?

E-E-A-T isn’t just some buzzword for digital marketing geeks to toss around at conferences. It’s Google’s way of separating the wheat from the chaff. Experience means real-world insights. Expertise ensures your content doesn’t sound like it’s written by an intern on their first day. Authoritativeness demands recognition from your industry.
And trust?
Well, it’s the silent decider—get it wrong, and everything else crumbles.
For content optimization in 2025, ignoring E-E-A-T signals means you’re throwing darts blindfolded. Google’s updates now measure not just what you say, but why anyone should care. And here’s the thing: thin content and anonymous authors are SEO death sentences.
How to Nail E-E-A-T (and Stay Ahead of the Latest SEO Trends)
Experience
Share specific, actionable knowledge. Generic advice doesn’t cut it anymore.
Example: A blog about SEO trends shouldn’t vaguely define "SEO"—it should delve into zero-click searches or multimodal search backed by real-world data.
Expertise
Feature qualified authors or contributors. Link their credentials to their content. Google actually checks authorship, so anonymous content only screams "spam."
Authoritativeness
Earn backlinks from reputable sites. Don’t fake authority—Google sees through it.
Trustworthiness
Secure your site (HTTPS), include proper sourcing, and avoid clickbait titles that don’t deliver.
The Hard Truth about E-E-A-T
E-E-A-T is the foundation for content optimization in a post-2024 world. The latest SEO trends show Google’s focus isn’t just on keywords but on the credibility of your entire digital presence.
It’s no longer enough to rank; you need to deserve to rank.
2. AI Overview and SEO

Artificial Intelligence is practically running the show. In 2025, AI isn’t a gimmick; it’s the brains behind search engines, content creation, and the unspoken secrets of what ranks. If you’re still crafting strategies without factoring in AI, here’s the harsh truth: you’re optimizing for a version of the internet that’s already irrelevant.
How AI Is Reshaping SEO
AI has transcended its “future of marketing” tagline. Today, it’s the present, and every search marketer worth their salt knows it.
Let’s break it down:
AI-Driven Search Engines
Google’s RankBrain and Multitask Unified Model (MUM) are redefining how search intent optimization works. They analyze context, intent, and semantics better than ever. Gone are the days when sprinkling keywords like fairy dust could boost rankings. AI demands relevance, intent, and, let’s be honest, better content.
Automated Content Creation
Tools like ChatGPT and Jasper are churning out content faster than most humans can proofread. The catch is, Google’s Helpful Content Update is watching—and penalizing—low-quality AI spam. Automated content might save time, but without a human layer of expertise, it’s a one-way ticket to obscurity.
Smart Search Predictions
AI isn’t just predicting what users type—it’s analyzing how they think. From location-based recommendations to real-time search trends, AI is shaping results before users finish typing their queries. This makes AI SEO tools like Clearscope and Surfer SEO essential for staying competitive.
Google AI Overview SERP: The New Front Door of Search

What Makes Google AI Overview SERPs Stand Out?
Generative AI Summaries In late 2023, Google started rolling out generative AI summaries at the top of certain searches. These provide quick, digestible answers pulled from the web, cutting through the noise of lengthy pages. It’s fast, convenient, and often the first (and only) thing users see. Pro Tip: Structure your content to directly answer questions concisely while retaining depth. Think FAQ sections, bullet points, and clear headers.
Visual Enhancements Google AI Overview SERPs now integrate rich visuals, including images, charts, and interactive elements powered by AI. These upgrades aren’t just eye-catching; they drive engagement. Pro Tip: Optimize images with alt text, compress them for speed, and ensure visual assets are relevant and high-quality.
Personalization on Steroids Google’s AI doesn’t just know what users want—it predicts it. From personalized recommendations to local search enhancements, SERPs are more targeted than ever. Pro Tip: Leverage local SEO strategies and schema markup to cater to these hyper-personalized results.
Adapting to Google AI SERPs
Aim for Snippet Domination: Featured snippets are now more important than ever, with AI summaries pulling directly from them. Answer questions directly and succinctly in your content.
Invest in Topic Clusters: AI thrives on context. Interlinking detailed, related content helps your site signal authority and relevance.
Optimize for Real Intent: With AI interpreting user queries more deeply, addressing surface-level keywords won’t cut it. Focus on intent-driven long-tail keywords and nuanced subtopics.
The Bottom Line
Google’s AI Overview SERP is the digital gateway to visibility in 2025. If your strategy isn’t aligned with these changes, you risk becoming invisible. Adapt your content to meet the demands of AI-driven features, and you’ll not just survive—you’ll thrive in this new SEO frontier.
What This Means for Your Strategy
AI-Assisted Content: Use AI for efficiency, but let humans handle creativity and trust-building.
Search Intent Optimization: Focus on answering deeper, adjacent questions. AI rewards nuanced, contextual relevance.
Invest in Tools: Tools like SEMrush and Ahrefs now integrate AI-powered insights, helping you stay ahead.
Look, artificial Intelligence in SEO isn’t an edge—it’s the standard. By 2025, marketers who don’t adapt will find their strategies in a digital graveyard. AI doesn’t replace your expertise; it amplifies it. Use it wisely—or get left behind.
3. Forum Marketing and SERP Updates
Platforms like Reddit, Quora, and niche communities are silently reshaping SEO and slipping into prime real estate on search engine results pages (SERPs). For marketers obsessed with the usual Google ranking factors, ignoring community-driven content could be the blind spot that costs you big.
Why Forums Are Influencing SERPs
Content Depth
Community-driven content is often nuanced, answering long-tail questions that traditional blogs barely skim. For instance, a Quora thread titled “Best local SEO strategies for small businesses in 2025” isn’t just generic advice—it’s specific, diverse, and sometimes brutally honest.
Searcher Intent Alignment
Forums directly address search intent optimization by catering to niche queries. Whether it’s “How to rank for hyper-local searches” or “Why my Google Business profile isn’t showing up,” forums deliver precise, user-generated insights.
Fresh Perspectives
Unlike stale, regurgitated SEO articles, forums thrive on updated discussions. A Reddit thread on “latest SEO trends” could become the top result simply because it offers real-time relevance.
What Marketers Need to Do
Engage, Don’t Spam
Build credibility by genuinely contributing to forums. Overly promotional comments are a fast track to being ignored—or worse, banned.
Monitor Trends
Tools like AnswerThePublic and BuzzSumo can identify trending community topics. Use these to create content that aligns with user discussions.
Optimize for SERP Features
Structure blog content to mimic forum-style Q&As. Google loves direct, conversational formats.
Ignoring the surge of forum content is no longer an option. So, don’t get left behind watching Quora outrank your site—adapt now.
4. Is Traditional SEO Still Relevant?
The debate is as old as Google itself: does traditional SEO still matter in a world where AI is taking over and search engines are rewriting the rules of engagement?

Traditional SEO Techniques That Still Work
Link Building (Reimagined)
Backlinks still matter, but Google has become savvier about quality over quantity. A link from an authoritative site in your niche outweighs ten random backlinks from irrelevant sources. Focus on building relationships with industry leaders, writing guest blogs, or getting cited in high-quality articles.
On-Page Optimization (Evolved)
Forget sprinkling keywords mindlessly. Google now prioritizes user experience SEO, meaning your headings, meta descriptions, and URLs need to align with search intent. Want to rank? Structure content logically, use descriptive titles, and, for goodness’ sake, stop overloading every tag with keywords.
Local SEO Strategies
Hyper-local searches like "coffee shops near me" are driving significant traffic. Traditional techniques like Google Business Profile optimization and consistent NAP (Name, Address, Phone) info still dominate here. What’s changed? You need to engage actively with reviews and ensure your profile reflects real-time updates.
Techniques That Need an Update
How to Adapt Traditional SEO in 2025
5. Zero-Click Searches
Now, let’s address the elephant on the search results page: zero-click searches. They’re not a trend anymore—they’re the new standard. With over 65% of Google searches ending without a click in 2020, search engines are clearly keeping users on their turf. They’re not just gatekeepers of information; they’re now the landlords, decorators, and sometimes the dinner hosts, offering all the answers upfront. And for businesses, this means rethinking how success in SEO is measured.

The Impact on SEO
Shift in Metrics
Forget obsessing over click-through rates. The latest SEO trends demand focusing on visibility within the SERP itself. If your business isn’t occupying rich result spaces, you’re effectively invisible.
Search Intent Optimization
Google isn’t just guessing user intent anymore—it’s anticipating it with precision. To stay relevant, businesses need to answer why users are searching, not just what they’re searching for.
Authority Consolidation
Zero-click features favor high-authority domains. If your brand isn’t seen as a credible source, you’re not making it into that snippet box.
How to Optimize for Zero-Click Searches
Target Featured Snippets
Structure your content with clear, concise answers at the top of your pages. Use lists, tables, and bullet points to cater to snippet formats.
Utilize Schema Markup
Help search engines understand your content by adding structured data. This boosts your chances of landing in rich results.
Focus on Hyper-Specific Queries
Zero-click searches thrive on niche, long-tail questions. Create content that directly addresses these to increase visibility.
What It Means for Businesses
In the world of zero-click searches, SEO success is about dominating the SERP real estate. Businesses that fail to adapt will find themselves in a no-click graveyard, while those who master rich results will cement their place as authority figures. Either way, the clicks aren’t coming back.
So, are you ready to play Google’s game—or be played?
6. Map Pack and Local Heat Maps
The truth is, if your business isn’t showing up in Google’s Map Pack, you might as well not exist for local customers. The Map Pack is literally the throne room of local SEO, and in 2025, it’s more competitive than ever. Pair that with Local Heat Maps—Google’s not-so-subtle way of telling businesses where they rank spatially—and you’ve got the ultimate battleground for visibility.

What Are the Map Pack and Local Heat Maps?
The Map Pack is that prime real estate at the top of local search results showing the top three businesses near a user. It’s concise, visual, and, let’s be honest, the first (and often only) thing users check. Local Heat Maps complement this by analyzing searcher behavior within a geographic radius, showing which businesses dominate specific zones.
Why It Matters
Visibility Drives Foot Traffic
According to recent studies, 78% of local mobile searches result in an offline purchase. If you’re not in the Map Pack, those sales are walking straight into your competitor’s doors.
User Proximity Bias
Google prioritizes businesses not just based on relevance but on proximity. If your listing isn’t optimized for precise local searches, you’re leaving money on the table.
Direct Influence on SERP Performance
Appearing in the Map Pack boosts Google ranking factors for local search queries, feeding visibility into both online and offline spaces.
How to Maximize Visibility in Local SEO
Optimize Your Google Business Profile (GBP):
Ensure your NAP (Name, Address, Phone) is accurate and consistent.
Add high-quality images, respond to reviews, and frequently update operating hours.
Focus on Reviews:
Encourage happy customers to leave reviews.
Respond to every review (yes, even the bad ones). Engagement signals trustworthiness.
Leverage Local Keywords:
Target queries like "best [your service] near me" or "[service] in [city]" to rank for location-based searches.
Tools like BrightLocal and Whitespark can help you track local performance.
Use SEO Automation Tools:
Tools like SEMrush and Moz Local can audit your listings, track rankings, and streamline updates. Automating repetitive tasks frees up time for deeper optimizations.
7. Voice and Mobile Search Optimization
Let’s get one thing straight: if your SEO strategy isn’t optimized for voice and mobile searches, you’re catering to an audience that doesn’t exist anymore. By 2025, voice-driven queries and mobile-first indexing are the baseline. If your website can’t keep up, neither will your rankings.
Why Voice and Mobile Search Dominate SEO

Voice Search is Redefining Queries
Voice search isn’t just “spoken Google.” It’s transforming how users ask questions. Searches are longer, more conversational, and often hyper-specific. For example, instead of typing “best SEO tools,” users now say, “What’s the best SEO automation tool for small businesses?” If your content doesn’t align with this natural language, you’re invisible.
Mobile is Non-Negotiable
Google’s mobile-first indexing means it now ranks websites based on their mobile versions. If your site is clunky on a smartphone, your desktop masterpiece won’t save you. And with nearly 60% of all searches happening on mobile, responsive design isn’t optional—it’s critical.
How to Optimize for Voice and Mobile
Create Conversational Content:
Use natural language that matches how people talk. Think FAQs and “how-to” guides tailored for voice queries.
Focus on long-tail keywords like “how to optimize for mobile-first indexing” rather than rigid phrases.
Mobile-First Design:
Prioritize responsive design that adapts seamlessly to smaller screens.
Optimize loading speed; anything over 3 seconds is SEO suicide.
Leverage Local SEO:
Most voice searches are local. Queries like “nearest coffee shop open now” thrive on accurate local listings.
Ensure your Google Business Profile is up-to-date and features consistent NAP info.
Use Structured Data:
Schema markup helps search engines interpret your content, increasing the likelihood of appearing in voice search results.
The future of SEO is voice-driven and mobile-first, and both require you to rethink how you structure your content and your site. Optimizing SEO for voice search and mobile-first indexing future-proofs your business. And if you’re not ready to adapt, don’t worry—your competitors already have.
8. What's Better for AI: BOFU or TOFU Content?
Let’s start with the obvious: not all content is the same, especially when AI gets involved. The age-old debate between Top of Funnel (TOFU) and Bottom of Funnel (BOFU) content just got a modern twist, thanks to the rise of AI-driven SEO. The real question isn’t which one is better—it’s how to use AI to optimize both.
Look, if you’re focusing on one and neglecting the other, you’re leaving money—and rankings—on the table.

TOFU Content: Casting the Wide Net
Top of Funnel content is designed to attract and inform. Think of blog posts, educational guides, or those “What is [your product]?” articles. In the AI era, TOFU content isn’t just about driving traffic; it’s about structured data examples and search intent optimization. AI tools like ChatGPT help create scalable, topic-driven content tailored for discovery.
Why TOFU Matters:
It builds brand awareness and visibility.
Optimized TOFU content aligns with broad search intent, capturing users who aren’t ready to buy but are hungry for knowledge.
TOFU shines in industries with complex products that need explanation before consideration.
BOFU Content: Sealing the Deal
On the other hand, Bottom of Funnel content focuses on converting leads into customers. This includes case studies, product comparisons, and detailed how-to content. AI isn’t just speeding up content creation here; it’s enabling hyper-personalized, decision-driven assets.
Why BOFU Matters:
It answers purchase-ready queries like “best SEO automation tools for small businesses.”
BOFU works wonders for products or services with shorter sales cycles or high competition.
The content can include dynamic features like interactive product demos or AI-generated testimonials to push users over the edge.
The Verdict: Which One Wins?
Neither. TOFU and BOFU content work best as part of a balanced strategy. AI thrives when it’s used to create and optimize both stages of the buyer’s journey.
For example:
Use AI to analyze trends and structure TOFU content for long-tail keywords.
Deploy AI for data-driven BOFU personalization, ensuring the content resonates with users’ specific needs.
AI isn’t here to settle the TOFU vs. BOFU debate—it’s here to make sure you never have to choose. A well-rounded strategy, powered by AI, ensures you attract the right audience and convert them when the time is right. If you’re doing one without the other, you’re playing half the game.

Staying Ahead of SEO Trends in 2025
SEO isn’t static, and 2025 won’t give you time to rest on outdated strategies. From zero-click searches hijacking clicks to AI redefining the content game, keeping up isn’t just a choice—it’s survival. Businesses that ignore these SEO trends risk fading into irrelevance faster than you can say “algorithm update.”
The solution? Adapt now!
Use AI SEO tools to fine-tune your strategy, optimize for human intent (not just search engines), and rethink how you create TOFU and BOFU content. It’s not about doing everything—it’s about doing the right things smarter and faster.
Start applying these insights today. Your competitors already are.

AI isn’t just predicting what users type—it’s analyzing how they think. From location-based recommendations to real-time search trends, AI is shaping results before users finish typing their queries. This makes AI SEO tools like Clearscope and Surfer SEO essential for staying competitive.
Google AI Overview SERP: The New Front Door of Search
Artificial Intelligence is practically running the show. In 2025, AI isn’t a gimmick; it’s the brains behind search engines, content creation, and the unspoken secrets of what ranks. If you’re still crafting strategies without factoring in AI, here’s the harsh truth: you’re optimizing for a version of the internet that’s already irrelevant.
How AI Is Reshaping SEO
AI has transcended its “future of marketing” tagline. Today, it’s the present, and every search marketer worth their salt knows it.

Let’s break it down:
AI-Driven Search Engines
Google’s RankBrain and Multitask Unified Model (MUM) are redefining how search intent optimization works. They analyze context, intent, and semantics better than ever. Gone are the days when sprinkling keywords like fairy dust could boost rankings. AI demands relevance, intent, and, let’s be honest, better content.
Automated Content Creation
Tools like ChatGPT and Jasper are churning out content faster than most humans can proofread. The catch is, Google’s Helpful Content Update is watching—and penalizing—low-quality AI spam. Automated content might save time, but without a human layer of expertise, it’s a one-way ticket to obscurity.

Google AI Overview SERP: The New Front Door of Search

Welcome to the AI-driven age of Google Search. The Search Engine Results Page (SERP) is no longer just a list of links; it’s a dynamic experience powered by Google’s ever-evolving AI. Features like AI-generated summaries, featured snippets, and People Also Ask (PAA) boxes are transforming how users interact with search. If you're not optimizing for these elements, you're missing out on massive traffic opportunities.
What Makes Google AI Overview SERPs Stand Out?
Generative AI Summaries In late 2023, Google started rolling out generative AI summaries at the top of certain searches. These provide quick, digestible answers pulled from the web, cutting through the noise of lengthy pages. It’s fast, convenient, and often the first (and only) thing users see. Pro Tip: Structure your content to directly answer questions concisely while retaining depth. Think FAQ sections, bullet points, and clear headers.
Visual Enhancements Google AI Overview SERPs now integrate rich visuals, including images, charts, and interactive elements powered by AI. These upgrades aren’t just eye-catching; they drive engagement. Pro Tip: Optimize images with alt text, compress them for speed, and ensure visual assets are relevant and high-quality.
Personalization on Steroids Google’s AI doesn’t just know what users want—it predicts it. From personalized recommendations to local search enhancements, SERPs are more targeted than ever. Pro Tip: Leverage local SEO strategies and schema markup to cater to these hyper-personalized results.
Adapting to Google AI SERPs
Aim for Snippet Domination: Featured snippets are now more important than ever, with AI summaries pulling directly from them. Answer questions directly and succinctly in your content.
Invest in Topic Clusters: AI thrives on context. Interlinking detailed, related content helps your site signal authority and relevance.
Optimize for Real Intent: With AI interpreting user queries more deeply, addressing surface-level keywords won’t cut it. Focus on intent-driven long-tail keywords and nuanced subtopics.
The Bottom Line
Google’s AI Overview SERP is the digital gateway to visibility in 2025. If your strategy isn’t aligned with these changes, you risk becoming invisible. Adapt your content to meet the demands of AI-driven features, and you’ll not just survive—you’ll thrive in this new SEO frontier.
What This Means for Your Strategy
AI-Assisted Content: Use AI for efficiency, but let humans handle creativity and trust-building.
Search Intent Optimization: Focus on answering deeper, adjacent questions. AI rewards nuanced, contextual relevance.
Invest in Tools: Tools like SEMrush and Ahrefs now integrate AI-powered insights, helping you stay ahead.
Look, artificial Intelligence in SEO isn’t an edge—it’s the standard. By 2025, marketers who don’t adapt will find their strategies in a digital graveyard. AI doesn’t replace your expertise; it amplifies it. Use it wisely—or get left behind.
3. Forum Marketing and SERP Updates
Platforms like Reddit, Quora, and niche communities are silently reshaping SEO and slipping into prime real estate on search engine results pages (SERPs). For marketers obsessed with the usual Google ranking factors, ignoring community-driven content could be the blind spot that costs you big.
The Role of Forums in SEO
Let’s break this down: search engines have realized something marketers often overlook—people trust people. Threads packed with first-hand experiences, debates, and candid opinions are becoming authoritative sources in their own right. When Google features forum content as a rich snippet or directs users to a Quora answer, it’s validating what audiences already know: real conversations drive engagement better than polished sales pitches.
The Role of Forums in SEO
Let’s break this down: search engines have realized something marketers often overlook—people trust people. Threads packed with first-hand experiences, debates, and candid opinions are becoming authoritative sources in their own right. When Google features forum content as a rich snippet or directs users to a Quora answer, it’s validating what audiences already know: real conversations drive engagement better than polished sales pitches.
Why Forums Are Influencing SERPs
Content Depth
Community-driven content is often nuanced, answering long-tail questions that traditional blogs barely skim. For instance, a Quora thread titled “Best local SEO strategies for small businesses in 2025” isn’t just generic advice—it’s specific, diverse, and sometimes brutally honest.
2. Searcher Intent Alignment
Forums directly address search intent optimization by catering to niche queries. Whether it’s “How to rank for hyper-local searches” or “Why my Google Business profile isn’t showing up,” forums deliver precise, user-generated insights.
3. Fresh Perspectives
Unlike stale, regurgitated SEO articles, forums thrive on updated discussions. A Reddit thread on “latest SEO trends” could become the top result simply because it offers real-time relevance.
What Marketers Need to Do
Engage, Don’t Spam
Build credibility by genuinely contributing to forums. Overly promotional comments are a fast track to being ignored—or worse, banned.
2. Monitor Trends
Tools like AnswerThePublic and BuzzSumo can identify trending community topics. Use these to create content that aligns with user discussions.
3. Optimize for SERP Features
Structure blog content to mimic forum-style Q&As. Google loves direct, conversational formats.
Ignoring the surge of forum content is no longer an option. So, don’t get left behind watching Quora outrank your site—adapt now.
4. Is Traditional SEO Still Relevant?
The debate is as old as Google itself: does traditional SEO still matter in a world where AI is taking over and search engines are rewriting the rules of engagement?

Here’s the answer marketers need to hear (but probably won’t love): yes—but not in the way you’re doing it.
Traditional SEO isn’t obsolete—it’s just overdue for an upgrade. Those age-old techniques like link building, on-page optimization, and keyword stuffing are still around, but their relevance now hinges on how well you adapt them to 2025’s priorities.
Traditional SEO Techniques That Still Work
Link Building (Reimagined)
Backlinks still matter, but Google has become savvier about quality over quantity. A link from an authoritative site in your niche outweighs ten random backlinks from irrelevant sources. Focus on building relationships with industry leaders, writing guest blogs, or getting cited in high-quality articles.
2. On-Page Optimization (Evolved)
Forget sprinkling keywords mindlessly. Google now prioritizes user experience SEO, meaning your headings, meta descriptions, and URLs need to align with search intent.
Want to rank?
Structure content logically, use descriptive titles, and, for goodness’ sake, stop overloading every tag with keywords.
3. Local SEO Strategies
Hyper-local searches like "coffee shops near me" are driving significant traffic. Traditional techniques like Google Business Profile optimization and consistent NAP (Name, Address, Phone) info still dominate here.
What’s changed?
You need to engage actively with reviews and ensure your profile reflects real-time updates.
5. Zero-Click Searches
Now, let’s address the elephant on the search results page: zero-click searches. They’re not a trend anymore—they’re the new standard. With over 65% of Google searches ending without a click, it’s clear search engines are keeping users on their turf. They’re not just gatekeepers of information; they’re now the landlords, decorators, and sometimes the dinner hosts, offering all the answers up front. And for businesses, this means rethinking how success in SEO is measured.
What Are Zero-Click Searches?
Zero-click searches occur when users get their answers directly on the search results page (SERP) without clicking through to any website. Think of featured snippets, Knowledge Panels, and People Also Ask boxes. Search engines use these to satisfy user queries immediately—great for users, but not so much for traffic-hungry websites.
The Impact on SEO
Shift in Metrics
Forget obsessing over click-through rates. The latest SEO trends demand focusing on visibility within the SERP itself. If your business isn’t occupying rich result spaces, you’re effectively invisible.
2. Search Intent Optimization
Google isn’t just guessing user intent anymore—it’s anticipating it with precision. To stay relevant, businesses need to answer why users are searching, not just what they’re searching for.
3. Authority Consolidation
Zero-click features favor high-authority domains. If your brand isn’t seen as a credible source, you’re not making it into that snippet box.
How to Optimize for Zero-Click Searches
1. Target Featured Snippets
Structure your content with clear, concise answers at the top of your pages. Use lists, tables, and bullet points to cater to snippet formats.
2. Utilize Schema Markup
Help search engines understand your content by adding structured data. This boosts your chances of landing in rich results.
3.Focus on Hyper-Specific Queries
Zero-click searches thrive on niche, long-tail questions. Create content that directly addresses these to increase visibility.
What It Means for Businesses
In the world of zero-click searches, SEO success is about dominating the SERP real estate. Businesses that fail to adapt will find themselves in a no-click graveyard, while those who master rich results will cement their place as authority figures. Either way, the clicks aren’t coming back.
So, are you ready to play Google’s game—or be played?
6. Map Pack and Local Heat Maps
The truth is, if your business isn’t showing up in Google’s Map Pack, you might as well not exist for local customers. The Map Pack is literally the throne room of local SEO, and in 2025, it’s more competitive than ever. Pair that with Local Heat Maps—Google’s not-so-subtle way of telling businesses where they rank spatially—and you’ve got the ultimate battleground for visibility.
What Are the Map Pack and Local Heat Maps?
The Map Pack is that prime real estate at the top of local search results showing the top three businesses near a user. It’s concise, visual, and, let’s be honest, the first (and often only) thing users check. Local Heat Maps complement this by analyzing searcher behavior within a geographic radius, showing which businesses dominate specific zones.
Why It Matters
Visibility Drives Foot Traffic
According to recent studies, 78% of local mobile searches result in an offline purchase. If you’re not in the Map Pack, those sales are walking straight into your competitor’s doors.
2. User Proximity Bias
Google prioritizes businesses not just based on relevance but on proximity. If your listing isn’t optimized for precise local searches, you’re leaving money on the table.
3. Direct Influence on SERP Performance
Appearing in the Map Pack boosts Google ranking factors for local search queries, feeding visibility into both online and offline spaces.
How to Maximize Visibility in Local SEO
Optimize Your Google Business Profile (GBP):
Ensure your NAP (Name, Address, Phone) is accurate and consistent.
Add high-quality images, respond to reviews, and frequently update operating hours.
Focus on Reviews:
Encourage happy customers to leave reviews.
Respond to every review (yes, even the bad ones). Engagement signals trustworthiness.
Leverage Local Keywords:
Target queries like "best [your service] near me" or "[service] in [city]" to rank for location-based searches.
Tools like BrightLocal and Whitespark can help you track local performance.
Use SEO Automation Tools:
Tools like SEMrush and Moz Local can audit your listings, track rankings, and streamline updates. Automating repetitive tasks frees up time for deeper optimizations.
7. Voice and Mobile Search Optimization
Let’s get one thing straight: if your SEO strategy isn’t optimized for voice and mobile searches, you’re catering to an audience that doesn’t exist anymore. By 2025, voice-driven queries and mobile-first indexing are the baseline. If your website can’t keep up, neither will your rankings.

Why Voice and Mobile Search Dominate SEO
Voice Search is Redefining Queries Voice search isn’t just “spoken Google.” It’s transforming how users ask questions. Searches are longer, more conversational, and often hyper-specific. For example, instead of typing “best SEO tools,” users now say, “What’s the best SEO automation tool for small businesses?” If your content doesn’t align with this natural language, you’re invisible.
Mobile is Non-Negotiable Google’s mobile-first indexing means it now ranks websites based on their mobile versions. If your site is clunky on a smartphone, your desktop masterpiece won’t save you. And with nearly 60% of all searches happening on mobile, responsive design isn’t optional—it’s critical.
How to Optimize for Voice and Mobile
Create Conversational Content:
Use natural language that matches how people talk. Think FAQs and “how-to” guides tailored for voice queries.
Focus on long-tail keywords like “how to optimize for mobile-first indexing” rather than rigid phrases.
Mobile-First Design:
Prioritize responsive design that adapts seamlessly to smaller screens.
Optimize loading speed; anything over 3 seconds is SEO suicide.
Leverage Local SEO:
Most voice searches are local. Queries like “nearest coffee shop open now” thrive on accurate local listings.
Ensure your Google Business Profile is up-to-date and features consistent NAP info.
Use Structured Data:
Schema markup helps search engines interpret your content, increasing the likelihood of appearing in voice search results.
The future of SEO is voice-driven and mobile-first, and both require you to rethink how you structure your content and your site. Optimizing SEO for voice search and mobile-first indexing future-proofs your business. And if you’re not ready to adapt, don’t worry—your competitors already have.
8. What's Better for AI: BOFU or TOFU Content?

Let’s start with the obvious: not all content is the same, especially when AI gets involved. The age-old debate between Top of Funnel (TOFU) and Bottom of Funnel (BOFU) content just got a modern twist, thanks to the rise of AI-driven SEO. The real question isn’t which one is better—it’s how to use AI to optimize both.
Look, if you’re focusing on one and neglecting the other, you’re leaving money—and rankings—on the table.

TOFU Content: Casting the Wide Net
Top of Funnel content is designed to attract and inform. Think of blog posts, educational guides, or those “What is [your product]?” articles. In the AI era, TOFU content isn’t just about driving traffic; it’s about structured data examples and search intent optimization. AI tools like ChatGPT help create scalable, topic-driven content tailored for discovery.
Why TOFU Matters:
It builds brand awareness and visibility.
Optimized TOFU content aligns with broad search intent, capturing users who aren’t ready to buy but are hungry for knowledge.
TOFU shines in industries with complex products that need explanation before consideration.
BOFU Content: Sealing the Deal
On the other hand, Bottom of Funnel content focuses on converting leads into customers. This includes case studies, product comparisons, and detailed how-to content. AI isn’t just speeding up content creation here; it’s enabling hyper-personalized, decision-driven assets.
Why BOFU Matters:
It answers purchase-ready queries like “best SEO automation tools for small businesses.”
BOFU works wonders for products or services with shorter sales cycles or high competition.
The content can include dynamic features like interactive product demos or AI-generated testimonials to push users over the edge.
The Verdict: Which One Wins?
Neither. TOFU and BOFU content work best as part of a balanced strategy. AI thrives when it’s used to create and optimize both stages of the buyer’s journey.
For example:
Use AI to analyze trends and structure TOFU content for long-tail keywords.
Deploy AI for data-driven BOFU personalization, ensuring the content resonates with users’ specific needs.
AI isn’t here to settle the TOFU vs. BOFU debate—it’s here to make sure you never have to choose. A well-rounded strategy, powered by AI, ensures you attract the right audience and convert them when the time is right. If you’re doing one without the other, you’re playing half the game.
Staying Ahead of SEO Trends in 2025
SEO isn’t static, and 2025 won’t give you time to rest on outdated strategies. From zero-click searches hijacking clicks to AI redefining the content game, keeping up isn’t just a choice—it’s survival. Businesses that ignore these SEO trends risk fading into irrelevance faster than you can say “algorithm update.”
The solution? Adapt now!
Use AI SEO tools to fine-tune your strategy, optimize for human intent (not just search engines), and rethink how you create TOFU and BOFU content. It’s not about doing everything—it’s about doing the right things smarter and faster.
Start applying these insights today. Your competitors already are.

The AI Dilemma: Balancing Benefits and Risks
One of the main focuses of AI research is the development of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), a hypothetical AI system that surpasses human intelligence in all areas. The AGI timeline, which outlines the expected time frame for the realization of AGI, is a crucial aspect of this research. While some experts predict that AGI will be achieved within the next few years or decades, others argue that it could take centuries or even millennia. Regardless of the time frame, the potential impact of AGI on human society and civilization is enormous and far-reaching.
Another important aspect of AI development is task specialization, where AI models are designed to excel at specific tasks, improving efficiency, productivity, and decision-making. Watermarking technology, which identifies the source of AI-generated content, is also an important part of AI development and addresses concerns about intellectual property and authorship. Google's SynthID technology, which detects and removes AI-generated content on the internet, is another significant development in this field.
However, AI development also brings challenges and concerns. Safety concerns, such as the potential for AI systems to cause harm or injury, must be addressed through robust safety protocols and risk management strategies. Testimonials from whistleblowers and insider perspectives can provide valuable insight into the challenges and successes of AI development and underscore the need for transparency and accountability. Board oversight and governance are also critical to ensure that AI development meets ethical and regulatory standards.
The impact of AI on different industries and aspects of society is also an important consideration. The potential of AI to transform industries such as healthcare, finance and education is enormous, but it also raises concerns about job losses, bias and inequality. The development of AI must be accompanied by a critical examination of its social and economic impacts to ensure that the benefits of AI are distributed fairly and the negative consequences are mitigated.
By recognizing the challenges and complexities of AI development, we can work toward creating a future where AI is developed and deployed in responsible, ethical and beneficial ways.
