Let’s be honest: AI-generated content is both incredible and sucks. It can clear brain fog in seconds but is also littering the internet.
In fact, earlier this month Google recognized just how bad your search experience is and announced some fine-tuning to their search algorithms to combat AI-generated content. Google will now downrank sites where AI is producing thousands of low-quality articles a day.
While I’m glad to see the changes, I will give it to Google that it's facing an uphill battle. Weeding out spam is like fighting a proliferating Agent Smith.
That’s why products like Arbor and Circle to Search catch my attention. They give you your own tools to save yourself from spam because even Neo needed some programs to learn Kung Fu.
Arbor’s mission is “to reindex the internet and save it from AI-generated SEO articles.” It aggregates and summarizes content across the web while duplicating and clustering content. For instance, it will give you a summary of a news event from all articles on the same topic and can highlight the differences between articles, too.
Circle to Search caught my eye because it took a familiar IRL action of circling content and powered it by AI. Though this tool is not as directly focused on spam content like Arbor is, it could definitely help you cut right to the chase — just circle an image of a steak to get results from recipes to Wikipedia articles on the topic, skipping Google entirely.
Try them out or stay stuck in a matrix of bots. The choice is yours.
One video is worth 1,000 words. So, skip the email and skip the meeting with Loom’s free video messaging.
Loom helps teams get more done with video. And now, Loom AI has learned a new trick: turning your video into a share-ready doc with new AI workflows.
AI workflows help you:
It’s as easy as recording your screen and choosing what you want to create. AI workflows give you more time to focus on what’s important — your work.
🤖 New Spatial Persona avatars from Apple. Do these weird ghost-like apparitions make you feel less lonely? They’re supposed to. Apple Vision Pro users were reporting feeling disconnected, so Apple broke avatars out of their restricted windows and plopped them next to you so that working together or playing games can feel more natural. Yes, totally natural. (I’m obviously not sold but others are).
🧠 That’s a no-go from Lego. Lego had to ask a police department in California to stop cropping Lego heads onto suspect’s heads. The department is known for getting creative with its booking photos to protect the reputation of people who may be found innocent, but it turns out Lego couldn’t let it go.
