Remember when Google was good until SEO got involved? I imagine a similar arms race will happen with LLMs. And with sports, every new rule ends up being abused.

More likely google was good until they realized they made more money showing you garbage, as long as it was filled with google ads.

I don't for a minute believe that the SEO folks outsmarted Google's engineers.
