This search should obviously return the official Docker Hub Redis image, https://hub.docker.com/_/redis, but it’s just a bunch of blogs.

On DuckDuckGo the first result is the Docker Hub image, which is what everyone would want.

    These things aren’t smart. They don’t know the context of your search. It doesn’t ask “why are they looking for [keyword]”, it just matches to results that score strongly for the keyword. Yeah, blogs tend to suck up the traffic but the results you got are 1 step away from what you were actually looking for but didn’t include in the search prompt.

      The real problem is that the internet is being littered by AI generated articles and blog posts. Optimizing your SEO has never been easier because how quickly it can analyse key words / trends etc. This process used to be extremely time consuming- not anymore.

      So now we have content that is generated for the sole purpose of getting traffic and serve no real value, competing with actual genuine sources. That’s why we’re seeing a shift in our search results.

      Ideally search engines now have to adapt and learn to differentiate between “real” and AI generated content. but just like global warming I fear we’ve gone beyond the point of no return, and must suffer the consequences.

        There’s still hope, we just need to actively sabotage these SEO hubs. The easiest and safest one would be an SEO site flagger plugin that would hide links to sites predominately featuring SEO garbage.

          I hope so - but I have my doubts. In many cases it’s already impossible for a human to differentiate between A.I generated- and real content. This applies to both image and text.

          While I’m on the subject; data poisoning is an interesting idea. If what the researchers behind the tool is true, it may change how copyright laws work on visual content.
