Manage episode 367481232 series 2931779
This conversation of Gert with Stephan Spencer in this episode is kind of different from other episodes because of the inspiration and soul included in it. Aside from Stephan Spencer's expertise in SEO, he delved deeper into the morality of how AI is quickly integrating into the works of content creators, thus taking away the credit from the originators who created their works intuitively.
For Stephan AI can be used for generating ideas for your content, but to have AI write your articles is like crossing a slippery slope.
Listen to this episode and be inspired by the perspectives on the best use of cross-channel SEO.
