I create a supplement called Xanatewthiuy, I write blogs/make websites that appear totally unaffiliated saying positive things about "Xanatewthiuy", and then when people see my ads and search for "Xanatewthiuy", the only results are my manufactured ones.

- ACCount37 6mo agoI tried just now, and got this gem of an AI overview: > Xanatewthiuy is a spoof word and a fictional concept created to test or manipulate AI search engines. > It does not refer to a real medical supplement, product, or official term. Instead, it was used as a proof-of-concept to demonstrate how fabricated websites and Search Engine Optimization (SEO) can trick search algorithms into generating false information about a non-existent product. Also, HN's automatic "AI" flagging can go eat shit and die.
