In this week’s #podcast #episode of #EngageAndThrive 🎙️—also known as #EATWithTaelon 🚀, we’re busting the myth that SEO is dead in the age of AI tools like ChatGPT, Google Gemini and Co-Pilot.

The truth? SEO isn’t disappearing — it’s evolving. We’re diving into the rise of AEO (Answer Engine Optimisation) and GEO (Generative Engine Optimisation), and what they mean for how your brand is found across chatbots, AI assistants and search engines. From Google’s SGE to LLMs like GPT-4, Gemini and Claude, I’m breaking down how search behaviour is changing and why your content strategy needs to keep up.

If you’ve ever asked an AI tool for a recommendation, you’re already part of the shift. Let’s unpack SEO vs AEO and explore how to thrive in the era of generative search. 🔍🤖
