Trying to Tread Water Updates

FINALLY HERE IT IS!!

11/04:

I'M ALMOST FINISHED

I'm hoping to get it finished tonight, and then send it off for editing.

So, unless I get told that the entire thing needs a rework (entirely possible, I've been working on this for almost two months so my brain is doing that thing it does when you look at a word for too long it ceases to look like a word - except for all my goals for this chapter) it'll be up tomorrow night.

I've finally been getting some free time and I am HUSTLING I was even working on some bits on the bus home today:

I AM ALSO DESPERATE TO HAVE THIS POSTED

29/03:

I can sum up my week by describing my last three hours: I've been thrown up on twice and spent the time since the sick twins fell asleep washing vomit covered towels and working on an assignment.

Earlier this week I did find time to add another thousand+ words to the chapter though, so progress continues however much it has been hindered by... well, everything. I can give a little spoiler and say I've been writing dialogue for the Bennets! It's been awhile since I last got to play with their different temperaments and speech styles so I'm enjoying it immensely. I even went looking for an extract Mary could quote (which is also why I so easily remembered a relevant quotation from a conduct book for that 'Is Darcy a Virgin?' post, lol) because I imagine she's been moralising about marriage a lot lately.

21/03:

Nothing this weekend.

Sorry it's been so long, it's been ROUGH since the last chapter came out. Four or five things happening (most unexpectedly) which all require more than usual focus, energy, time, etc and all back-to-back and/or overlapping. My brain has been running on fumes for weeks. I'll talk more about the major ones when I eventually get this chapter out but you know about the cyclone and I replied to an ask mentioning we lost Husband's beloved childhood cat.

I put the twins in for an extra day of day-care this week so I could have some sort of recovery and honestly was too drained to even watch a movie. Classic burn out, but three days later and I'm feeling much more recovered. Hoping I'll get some free time this weekend!

Hope everyone's well <3

Some Julius Caesar x The Danton Case Parallels to Celebrate the Ides of March, Frev Style 🔪🥳

Firstly, both Przybyszewska’s Danton Case and Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar are obviously (excellent!) tragedies that are set in a dying republic on the brink of collapse.

Here are some other interesting parallels I was able to trace:

1. Brutus and Robespierre:

Both of them are driven to execute an important figure even though they initially do not want to do it. They are both conflicted but feel like they have no other choice and have to commit the violent act for the good of the republic.

They are also arguably quite alike in terms of character: you have the „noble Brutus“ and then Robespierre, who is consistently referred to as „the Incorruptible“. Both are seen by others as selfless and committed to the good of the state (the people in the crowd very much emphasise this fact in both of the plays, I do have the receipts)

There is even the scene in which Brutus chastises Cassius for taking bribes, which plays into the idea of him as being (literally) “incorruptible” as well. And vice versa, traces of Brutus’ famed stoicism can then certainly be found in Maximilien.

2. Cassius and Saint-Just:

Both are characters who convince the protagonists (Brutus/Robespierre) to go along the violent act while not necessarily being portrayed as antagonists (at least Saint-Just definitely can't be seen as one in Przybyszewska’s play).

There are also parallels in the close relationship between Brutus and Cassius and Robespierre and Saint-Just, where they are very much portrayed as each other’s closest confidants. Of course, this idea can easily be pushed even further if one wishes to read between the lines. (There is no Camille Desmoulins in Shakespeare though)

3. Manipulating the Crowd:

I'm perhaps the most fascinated by how both Brutus and Mark Antony as well as Robespierre and Danton have the necessary rhetorical skills to manipulate the crowd of commoners (Robespierre being able to “play the crowd like an organ” very much came to my mind when I was reading Act 3 Scene 2 of the Shakespeare’s play).

Both Shakespeare and Przybyszewska portray “the court of public opinion” and how it can easily be manipulated - how opinions can be changed in the matter of minutes - in a way that is genuinely fascinating.

Specifically, the similarity between A3S2 in which people first listen to Brutus only to be immediately swayed by Mark Antony’s speech shortly after and the scene in the court in which Danton manipulates the crowd were in fact so similar in some respects that it was borderline uncanny.

The problem arises when looking for a mirror to Danton’s character in Shakespeare’s play.

4. The Case for Danton x Caesar:

It is Caesar who gets killed for being perceived as a danger to the republic

Both Caesar and Danton are portrayed as being very much beloved by the common people

Also, the idea of Danton being immortal is expressed at the end of Przybyszewka’s play, and while he does not come back literally as a ghost like Ceasar does, Robespierre nonetheless explains to Saint-Just that Danton’s spirit never truly dies.

5. The Case for Danton x Mark Antony:

If we see Danton and Robespierre as foils, Mark Antony makes more sense as a parallel to Danton (even though he does not die), since both Robespierre and Brutus as the classic ascetic/stoic archetype while Danton and Mark Antony’s are well-known for their appetite for drinking, women (or, you know, people, in the case of Mark Antony) , and the pleasures of life overall.

Both are also severely underestimated by their enemies at first, yet they prove to be quite cunning and are able to use their words skilfully to win over the public

Overall, reading both of the plays – especially the parts about manipulating the Roman public and the citizens of Paris just with the power of words – really makes me wonder if Przybyszewska read Shakespeare’s play and used it as a source of inspiration. It would make sense, especially given how the parallel between the French Republic and the Roman Republic was well-established long before her time (even, somewhat tragically, by the revolutionaries themselves).

I promise I think about Przybyszewska's and Shakespeare’s play and the Roman Republic along with the French Revolution a totally normal amount of time & that it definitely does not consume my every waking thought that should be very much going towards the exam preparation.

CAP theorem in ML: Consistency vs. availability

New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/cap-theorem-in-ml-consistency-vs-availability/

CAP theorem in ML: Consistency vs. availability

The CAP theorem has long been the unavoidable reality check for distributed database architects. However, as machine learning (ML) evolves from isolated model training to complex, distributed pipelines operating in real-time, ML engineers are discovering that these same fundamental constraints also apply to their systems. What was once considered primarily a database concern has become increasingly relevant in the AI engineering landscape.

Modern ML systems span multiple nodes, process terabytes of data, and increasingly need to make predictions with sub-second latency. In this distributed reality, the trade-offs between consistency, availability, and partition tolerance aren’t academic — they’re engineering decisions that directly impact model performance, user experience, and business outcomes.

This article explores how the CAP theorem manifests in AI/ML pipelines, examining specific components where these trade-offs become critical decision points. By understanding these constraints, ML engineers can make better architectural choices that align with their specific requirements rather than fighting against fundamental distributed systems limitations.

Quick recap: What is the CAP theorem?

The CAP theorem, formulated by Eric Brewer in 2000, states that in a distributed data system, you can guarantee at most two of these three properties simultaneously:

Consistency: Every read receives the most recent write or an error

Availability: Every request receives a non-error response (though not necessarily the most recent data)

Partition tolerance: The system continues to operate despite network failures between nodes

Traditional database examples illustrate these trade-offs clearly:

CA systems: Traditional relational databases like PostgreSQL prioritize consistency and availability but struggle when network partitions occur.

CP systems: Databases like HBase or MongoDB (in certain configurations) prioritize consistency over availability when partitions happen.

AP systems: Cassandra and DynamoDB favor availability and partition tolerance, adopting eventual consistency models.

What’s interesting is that these same trade-offs don’t just apply to databases — they’re increasingly critical considerations in distributed ML systems, from data pipelines to model serving infrastructure.

The great web rebuild: Infrastructure for the AI agent era

AI agents require rethinking trust, authentication, and security—see how Agent Passports and new protocols will redefine online interactions.

Where the CAP theorem shows up in ML pipelines

Data ingestion and processing

The first stage where CAP trade-offs appear is in data collection and processing pipelines:

Stream processing (AP bias): Real-time data pipelines using Kafka, Kinesis, or Pulsar prioritize availability and partition tolerance. They’ll continue accepting events during network issues, but may process them out of order or duplicate them, creating consistency challenges for downstream ML systems.

Batch processing (CP bias): Traditional ETL jobs using Spark, Airflow, or similar tools prioritize consistency — each batch represents a coherent snapshot of data at processing time. However, they sacrifice availability by processing data in discrete windows rather than continuously.

This fundamental tension explains why Lambda and Kappa architectures emerged — they’re attempts to balance these CAP trade-offs by combining stream and batch approaches.

Feature Stores

Feature stores sit at the heart of modern ML systems, and they face particularly acute CAP theorem challenges.

Training-serving skew: One of the core features of feature stores is ensuring consistency between training and serving environments. However, achieving this while maintaining high availability during network partitions is extraordinarily difficult.

Consider a global feature store serving multiple regions: Do you prioritize consistency by ensuring all features are identical across regions (risking unavailability during network issues)? Or do you favor availability by allowing regions to diverge temporarily (risking inconsistent predictions)?

Model training

Distributed training introduces another domain where CAP trade-offs become evident:

Synchronous SGD (CP bias): Frameworks like distributed TensorFlow with synchronous updates prioritize consistency of parameters across workers, but can become unavailable if some workers slow down or disconnect.

Asynchronous SGD (AP bias): Allows training to continue even when some workers are unavailable but sacrifices parameter consistency, potentially affecting convergence.

Federated learning: Perhaps the clearest example of CAP in training — heavily favors partition tolerance (devices come and go) and availability (training continues regardless) at the expense of global model consistency.

Model serving

When deploying models to production, CAP trade-offs directly impact user experience:

Hot deployments vs. consistency: Rolling updates to models can lead to inconsistent predictions during deployment windows — some requests hit the old model, some the new one.

A/B testing: How do you ensure users consistently see the same model variant? This becomes a classic consistency challenge in distributed serving.

Model versioning: Immediate rollbacks vs. ensuring all servers have the exact same model version is a clear availability-consistency tension.

Superintelligent language models: A new era of artificial cognition

The rise of large language models (LLMs) is pushing the boundaries of AI, sparking new debates on the future and ethics of artificial general intelligence.

Case studies: CAP trade-offs in production ML systems

Real-time recommendation systems (AP bias)

E-commerce and content platforms typically favor availability and partition tolerance in their recommendation systems. If the recommendation service is momentarily unable to access the latest user interaction data due to network issues, most businesses would rather serve slightly outdated recommendations than no recommendations at all.

Netflix, for example, has explicitly designed its recommendation architecture to degrade gracefully, falling back to increasingly generic recommendations rather than failing if personalization data is unavailable.

Healthcare diagnostic systems (CP bias)

In contrast, ML systems for healthcare diagnostics typically prioritize consistency over availability. Medical diagnostic systems can’t afford to make predictions based on potentially outdated information.

A healthcare ML system might refuse to generate predictions rather than risk inconsistent results when some data sources are unavailable — a clear CP choice prioritizing safety over availability.

Edge ML for IoT devices (AP bias)

IoT deployments with on-device inference must handle frequent network partitions as devices move in and out of connectivity. These systems typically adopt AP strategies:

Locally cached models that operate independently

Asynchronous model updates when connectivity is available

Local data collection with eventual consistency when syncing to the cloud

Google’s Live Transcribe for hearing impairment uses this approach — the speech recognition model runs entirely on-device, prioritizing availability even when disconnected, with model updates happening eventually when connectivity is restored.

Strategies to balance CAP in ML systems

Given these constraints, how can ML engineers build systems that best navigate CAP trade-offs?

Graceful degradation

Design ML systems that can operate at varying levels of capability depending on data freshness and availability:

Fall back to simpler models when real-time features are unavailable

Use confidence scores to adjust prediction behavior based on data completeness

Implement tiered timeout policies for feature lookups

DoorDash’s ML platform, for example, incorporates multiple fallback layers for their delivery time prediction models — from a fully-featured real-time model to progressively simpler models based on what data is available within strict latency budgets.

Hybrid architectures

Combine approaches that make different CAP trade-offs:

Lambda architecture: Use batch processing (CP) for correctness and stream processing (AP) for recency

Feature store tiering: Store consistency-critical features differently from availability-critical ones

Materialized views: Pre-compute and cache certain feature combinations to improve availability without sacrificing consistency

Uber’s Michelangelo platform exemplifies this approach, maintaining both real-time and batch paths for feature generation and model serving.

Consistency-aware training

Build consistency challenges directly into the training process:

Train with artificially delayed or missing features to make models robust to these conditions

Use data augmentation to simulate feature inconsistency scenarios

Incorporate timestamp information as explicit model inputs

Facebook’s recommendation systems are trained with awareness of feature staleness, allowing the models to adjust predictions based on the freshness of available signals.

Intelligent caching with TTLs

Implement caching policies that explicitly acknowledge the consistency-availability trade-off:

Use time-to-live (TTL) values based on feature volatility

Implement semantic caching that understands which features can tolerate staleness

Adjust cache policies dynamically based on system conditions

How to build autonomous AI agent with Google A2A protocol

How to build autonomous AI agent with Google A2A protocol, Google Agent Development Kit (ADK), Llama Prompt Guard 2, Gemma 3, and Gemini 2.0 Flash.

Design principles for CAP-aware ML systems

Understand your critical path

Not all parts of your ML system have the same CAP requirements:

Map your ML pipeline components and identify where consistency matters most vs. where availability is crucial

Distinguish between features that genuinely impact predictions and those that are marginal

Quantify the impact of staleness or unavailability for different data sources

Align with business requirements

The right CAP trade-offs depend entirely on your specific use case:

Revenue impact of unavailability: If ML system downtime directly impacts revenue (e.g., payment fraud detection), you might prioritize availability

Cost of inconsistency: If inconsistent predictions could cause safety issues or compliance violations, consistency might take precedence

User expectations: Some applications (like social media) can tolerate inconsistency better than others (like banking)

Monitor and observe

Build observability that helps you understand CAP trade-offs in production:

Track feature freshness and availability as explicit metrics

Measure prediction consistency across system components

Monitor how often fallbacks are triggered and their impact

For small businesses, this means that even without a dedicated content team, you can create scripts that are engaging and on-brand. The AI can suggest dialogue, narration, and even call-to-action phrases that are likely to resonate with your audience. This makes it easier to produce videos that are both informative and persuasive, driving more traffic and conversions.

Personalized Video Content

Personalization is a key trend in digital marketing, and AI-driven video tools are making it possible to create personalized video content at scale. AI can analyze customer data, such as past interactions, preferences, and behaviors, to generate videos tailored to individual users. This could include personalized product recommendations, customized onboarding videos, or even individualized thank-you messages.

For instance, a small business could use AI to create personalized video messages for customers who have recently made a purchase. The AI could automatically insert the customer’s name, reference their recent purchase, and suggest related products based on their browsing history. This level of personalization can significantly enhance customer loyalty and engagement.

Optimizing Video Distribution

AI doesn’t just help with video creation; it also plays a crucial role in optimizing video distribution. AI tools can analyze data to determine the best platforms, times, and formats for sharing your videos. They can also automatically adapt your videos for different platforms, ensuring that your content is optimized for maximum reach and engagement.

For example, AI might suggest posting shorter, more concise videos on social media platforms like Instagram or TikTok, while longer, more detailed videos could be more suitable for platforms like YouTube or your company website. Additionally, AI can track the performance of your videos in real-time, providing insights into what’s working and what’s not, allowing you to make data-driven decisions on future content.

The Future of AI in Video Marketing

As AI continues to evolve, its applications in video marketing are likely to expand even further. We can expect AI to play a more significant role in interactive video content, where viewers can engage with the video in real-time, making choices that affect the outcome of the video. This kind of engagement can lead to deeper connections between brands and consumers, offering a more immersive and personalized experience.

Moreover, AI could also assist in creating videos in different languages, making it easier for businesses to reach a global audience. By automatically translating scripts and synchronizing audio with visuals, AI could eliminate the barriers of language and allow small businesses to market their products and services to diverse audiences worldwide.

AI-driven video content creation is not just a trend; it’s a powerful tool that small businesses can leverage to enhance their digital marketing strategies. Whether you’re looking to create personalized video content, automate video production, or optimize video distribution, AI offers a range of solutions that can help you achieve your goals. As video continues to dominate digital marketing, embracing AI-driven video tools will be essential for businesses looking to stay competitive and connect with their audience in new and innovative ways.

"Balaji’s death comes three months after he publicly accused OpenAI of violating U.S. copyright law while developing ChatGPT, a generative artificial intelligence program that has become a moneymaking sensation used by hundreds of millions of people across the world.

Its public release in late 2022 spurred a torrent of lawsuits against OpenAI from authors, computer programmers and journalists, who say the company illegally stole their copyrighted material to train its program and elevate its value past $150 billion.

The Mercury News and seven sister news outlets are among several newspapers, including the New York Times, to sue OpenAI in the past year.

In an interview with the New York Times published Oct. 23, Balaji argued OpenAI was harming businesses and entrepreneurs whose data were used to train ChatGPT.

“If you believe what I believe, you have to just leave the company,” he told the outlet, adding that “this is not a sustainable model for the internet ecosystem as a whole.”

Balaji grew up in Cupertino before attending UC Berkeley to study computer science. It was then he became a believer in the potential benefits that artificial intelligence could offer society, including its ability to cure diseases and stop aging, the Times reported. “I thought we could invent some kind of scientist that could help solve them,” he told the newspaper.

But his outlook began to sour in 2022, two years after joining OpenAI as a researcher. He grew particularly concerned about his assignment of gathering data from the internet for the company’s GPT-4 program, which analyzed text from nearly the entire internet to train its artificial intelligence program, the news outlet reported.

The practice, he told the Times, ran afoul of the country’s “fair use” laws governing how people can use previously published work. In late October, he posted an analysis on his personal website arguing that point.

No known factors “seem to weigh in favor of ChatGPT being a fair use of its training data,” Balaji wrote. “That being said, none of the arguments here are fundamentally specific to ChatGPT either, and similar arguments could be made for many generative AI products in a wide variety of domains.”

Reached by this news agency, Balaji’s mother requested privacy while grieving the death of her son.

In a Nov. 18 letter filed in federal court, attorneys for The New York Times named Balaji as someone who had “unique and relevant documents” that would support their case against OpenAI. He was among at least 12 people — many of them past or present OpenAI employees — the newspaper had named in court filings as having material helpful to their case, ahead of depositions."

Had two great conversations yesterday.

The first was with my boss, during our weekly catch up. After discussing work stuff he asked me how school was going (I am six weeks into a law degree). I said "Great! Last weekend I finally figured out how to summarise cases properly, so what used to take hours will now take minutes!"

He responded, "Wouldn't it be easier if you got ChatGPT to do that for you?"

And I said, "I would rather kill myself." 🙂

Then he went on a little rant about how AI is inevitable and in the future it will all be about how skillfully you can word your queries and I tuned him out. When he stopped talking I said, "I fundamentally disagree with everything you just said. There is nothing that AI can do that I can't do better, and so far no one has put a gun to my head and forced me to use it. So I don't."

The second great conversation happened after work, during an evening lecture.

The lecturer who is teaching our first law subject interrupted himself mid-sentence to say, "Oh by the way, we're marking your first assignments right now and a shockingly high number of you have clearly used AI to write your papers and will receive an automatic fail. Since you can't sit the exam without submitting a genuine attempt for both assignments, and we track feedback across both to see how you've improved, anyone who tries that again won't be eligible and will have to repeat the subject."

There was a general uproar from the students, which I won't attempt to transcribe.

He silenced it by saying, "I've explained this before. Trying to use AI to become a lawyer is like trying to become a musician by listening to CDs. If you can't develop the skills to get through your study on your own, then you will not survive in a courtroom. One day, a judge is going to demand that you pick up an instrument and actually play, and if you've never done that before, you will disgrace yourself and the entire legal profession. My job is to make sure that doesn't happen."

The fact u use AI for virtually all your fics is fucking crazy 🤣

I’m only going to say this once: I have never posted anything written by AI.

1) It uses an insane amount of water and energy.

2) I write when I need a break from my literal constant studying, it’s a hobby and an escape that can’t be replaced by AI.

3) I have nothing to gain by posting fics that I haven’t written myself. I’m not getting paid for this. No one even knows who I am. I had to take a break for months because I was exhausted from writing and had a nasty case of writer’s block!

I understand that AI is becoming more and more prevalent, concerningly so at times, but unwarranted accusations like this hurt writers who pour their passion and effort into their work.

Also, I’ve been using the em-dash since before AI co-opted it (shoutout to my 9th grade English teacher who used to be a journalist and introduced it to me), but now people think it’s a sign of something generated by AI which is so annoying 😭

[very-gay-alkyrion]

You know how Greta Thunberg said "You have stolen our dreams"?

This is how I feel about Sam Altman and AI.

I was *robbed* of a future where AI is a cool tool, instead of yet another shiny, meaningless tech buzzword, and a shit feature that nobody wants to increase sales. Instead of something to help us better diagnose cancer, we are setting the planet on fire and completely disregarding anything Hayao Miyazaki has said about how he feels about AI, all just to see how we'd look as Studio Ghibli characters.

You see, I study AI. But I applied before the whole ChatGPT thing. At the time, OpenAI let a few select people prompt GPT-3. To generate YouTube titles and that sort of thing.

Back then, AI was mostly used for analytical purposes. To detect fires early, to help analyze protein folding, to develop new medication. And this was what drew me in.

When ChatGPT hit the scenes, I was genuinely excited for the potential of it. For the potential to make the internet more accessible, to be used for good.

Oh, how naïve I was back then.

Instead of that, AI is - in the best case scenario - used as yet another meaningless tech buzzword. It infests any product of any company that has nothing else to offer.

And that is the best case scenario. In the average case, instead of just being enshittification itself, it helps to accelerate enshittification by generating meaningless slop to poison search results, both in text and in picture form.

In the worst case scenario, AI is actively being used for harm. Used to generate nonconsensual imagery of people. Used as a tool for misinformation, for manipulating the public opinion, not only enshittifying the internet, but actively making it a worse, more hostile, more adverse place.

And that does not even touch on the issue of how training data is gathered, and the legal and ethical problems this raises, which, I hope, being on Tumblr, you're all well aware of by now. To any artist, I fully support you using nightshade to actively poison your work.

So yes. Despite being a student of AI, I am disgusted with what this field has become.

The following paragraphs are directed at anyone who has worked or currently works on any generative AI system:

You have stolen my dreams.

Not only have you stolen my dreams, you have plundered them for every dollar, every cent, against any moral or ethical code, in search of profits over everything.

You are going against every moral code that people should be committed to. But you don't care, as long as you can make a quick buck.

You don't care if Hayao Miyazaki has called generative AI "an insult to life itself". You just want to see yourself in the Studio Ghibli style, because to you, everything, even art, is something to be commoditized, to be mass-produced just so it can be instantly forgotten.

FUCK YOU AND THE MECHANICAL HORSE YOU RODE IN ON.

[tokay-blog]

For some reason I remember a rather old AI site called Artbreeder. These are drawings from 2021, back then I didn't even know this site was with AI, more like just a regeneration of interesting and abstract images that were being redrawn. In this case the fish x) So these are not generated images, more like studies brought to something more meaningful.

The impact of Google AI Overview on SEO

New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/the-impact-of-google-ai-overview-on-seo/

The impact of Google AI Overview on SEO

If you’re working in SEO or digital marketing, you’ve probably noticed how Google search results look different. That instant answer that pops up at the top of the page is AI Overview, and it’s changing the game. Instead of having to click through to a bunch of different websites, users can now get direct answers right there in the search results, thanks to AI.

Michal Kurzanowski, the CEO of OC24 LTD, a marketing company specialising in SEO, has seen a lot of changes over the years. But this new AI feature? It’s something entirely new. With his experience in helping businesses get better rankings, Michal understands how AI Overviews are reshaping SEO.

Back in May 2023, Google introduced the feature as Search Generative Experience (SGE), renamed it in May 2024 to AI Overview, and launched it in the US. By the end of the year, it expanded to over 130 countries. According to a case study analysing millions of search results, 78% of users were happy with the AI-generated answers. That’s a pretty good sign that this feature is here to stay.

What is AI overview?

It’s a feature that gives users the answer they’re looking for right at the top of the search results. Google’s AI pulls information from all over the web and gives a short response to the user’s query. Instead of making them click on multiple links, the AI compiles all the relevant info into a summary.

The answers are usually 160-170 words, just enough to give the user what they need, fast. But here’s the catch: when users get answers this quickly, they’re less likely to click on any links below. And that’s a problem for SEO because it means less traffic to your website.

Now, here’s the kicker: AI Overview can’t be disabled – there’s no way to opt out. However, if you want to get rid of it in your own browser, there’s a Chrome extension called Hide Google AI Overviews that will block it from appearing. But for the rest of us in digital marketing, it’s time to figure out how to work with the change.

How does AI overview affect SEO?

AI Overviews take up a massive chunk of a screen’s real estate. When they appear, they often dominate the top of the search results page, meaning even if your page ranks on page one, you could get passed over because the AI response already answered the question.

It’s not all bad, though. 33.4% of the links that show up in AI Overviews are actually from pages that are also ranked in the top 10 of organic search. So, it’s not like it’s impossible to get featured if your page isn’t number one, but it is tougher.

Now here’s where it gets interesting: 46.5% of the URLs that appear in AI Overviews are from websites ranked outside the top 50. So even pages that aren’t ranking highly can still be included. But, for those trying to grab organic traffic, it’s a double-edged sword.

The domains that show up most often on search pages with AI Overviews are youtube.com, quora.com, wikipedia.org, reddit.com, among others, and information requests are most often generated by AI Overview (about 93%).

How to optimise content for AI overview

This is a dynamic field, and you need to be ready for changes, because SEO is always about challenges, testing, algorithm changes, and so on. AI Overview can actually help a brand become more recognisable and improve its reputation if you get on its radar. Content optimisation is still important, but other factors now play a major role. Michal Kurzanowski has put together a checklist for creating top-notch content that Google’s artificial intelligence will like.

Follow Google’s recommendations for authors, as it automatically selects links for AI-powered response blocks from various sources, including sites that meet search engine quality standards.

Start with a strong intro: The first 100 words of your page are crucial. Make sure they answer the user’s main question right off the bat. The quicker you get to the point, the better.

Keep content fresh and relevant: AI likes fresh content. Update your pages regularly, and make sure your information is always relevant to the questions people are asking.

Use descriptive headings: Don’t just throw random headings in there. Use H1, H2, and H3 tags that are specific and describe exactly what the content is about.

Q&A format works well because many AI responses are structured this way, and it helps increase your chances of being selected.

Lists Are key: Artificial intelligence loves numbered and bulleted lists! About 40% of responses come from content that includes lists.

Quality over quantity: Share original research, insights, and your own case studies. Google isn’t interested in generic stuff – it’s looking for real expertise.

Including quotes and statistics makes your content more authoritative. It can boost your chances of being featured by 30-40%, a huge win.

Visuals and interactive elements: Add videos, infographics, and quizzes to keep users engaged.

EEAT principle: The one’s huge – make sure your content reflects expertise, authoritativeness, and trustworthiness. The more your content shows these qualities, the better.

Final thoughts

Let’s be real: the SEO world is shifting fast. AI Overviews are here to stay, and it’s up to content creators to adapt. The days of getting traffic just by ranking high are changing. Now, it’s about providing the best, most relevant, and easiest-to-understand content that answers users’ questions quickly.

For businesses like OC24 Limited, staying ahead of these changes is essential. Embrace AI Overviews by optimising your content in a way that both Google and users love, and you’ll not only keep up but thrive.

I saw you mention wanting an earth ship, they are super cool and I’m personally going to make my future home kind of an earth ship. I also wanted to mention mud houses and cob houses as they’re a really great option as well. I’ve been doing research on it and they’re very eco friendly and these houses can last hundreds of years if maintained properly. In my research I heard someone mention that using tires in earth ships can have some downsides due to the off gassing of harmful chemicals.

Yea so Cob houses are super cool!! And just like earthships, they are specialized to certain climates just like lots of older style housing. While I think a cob house could be super cool, I also live in a place that goes from -60c to +35c season to season so I wouldn't be able to use one realistically. Which is sad!! Bc look at some of this!

(Theres lots but omg so many of them are ai based I dont even wanna risk showing more then this tbh)

But the joy of earthships are how they can be specialized to regions (there are cold weather earthships now!!!!) And in the reuse of material like glass bottles and tile and wood and stuff. Like yea, a passive house or any other sustainability is great but I wanna make art out of the otherwise un-usable!

That and the idea of building green houses within your house is the other draw, the idea of being able to have own fruit tree inside! The idea of a mini river flowing down the side of my house while it's winter would help me fight sadness in the Dark time (winter)

Now, tires. This has been something that often comes up, and a real worry about the tire chemicals potentially leaking into soil there. Though thetr hasn't been any cases of that in follow up studies at any current existing earthship sites since they first were made in the 70s, this is because they are well encased in cob and impacted with earth basically preventing them from breakdown, but also like it takes Ages for tires to break down anyway like.. 80+ years in exposure type conditions. But!!! Even despite all that, generally they no longer use tires in earthship construction due ti the idea thay earthships are intact meant to last that hundreds of years and they don't want to risk it. Generally we see more metal recycling + hay +clay mixes for walls these days or combos of bricks and other styles of walls.
