Mordy wants More AI!

Erin jumped out of this week’s news to go into the wilderness where there is no AI, and Mordy brought even more of it to the show.  News articles for The Verge and Search Engine Land, as well as CBS News and Search Engine Roundtable.  We’re getting wrapped up in AI here, but there’s going to be more to come next week!

Oh yeah – tweet Mordy more SGE examples, would ya? He loves it.
