ChatGPT and other Large Language Models (LLMs) are seemingly everywhere, and it’s crucial to learn what’s possible with them while acknowledging their flaws. After all, do LLMs have their intelligence? Is ChatGPT ready for “prime time,” or is it merely a toy that can lead to fake and error-laden stories?
President of Pilot Holding, Eric Enge, joined me on the SEJShow to share the truth behind the prevailing myths surrounding the generative AI landscape and how to succeed with the tools instead.
Discover the problems arising from placing too much trust in generative AI. You’ll also find out what is possible and how to use it in your business best while avoiding the common mistakes associated with LLMs.
We must remember that the real problem is that this stuff is trained on the open internet. We have all the world’s information on the web, and that’s great, but we also have all the world’s disinformation on the web and a lot of overtly intended misinformation. –Eric Enge,41:18
Anybody who thinks SEO is going away because of this doesn’t understand SEO. As long as people want to search for and find things, and as long as there are tools to help people search for and find things, there will be SEO, end of story. –Eric Enge, 32:48
We’re not at the point where this will supplant humans in all things. But we are at a point where we’ve developed a really interesting tool that can be used constructively and creatively in many different ways.–Eric Enge, 37:38

Right now, we have this massive paradigm shift or the preparation for the shift. We’re definitely in the infant stages. Most of us SEOs have Google SGE running on our browsers. We’re doing queries daily. We’re getting scared or anxious every time we do a query. Now we’re seeing an article appear before the typical organic results. We must keep reminding ourselves that we are beta-testing this at the moment. –Loren Baker, 04:21
The easiest way to get started is to take a page on your site, feed it into the model, give it the search query you want it to rank for, and ask it what changes you need to make to improve your chances of ranking on that or what content gaps you need to fill. –Eric Enge,44:22
Over time, E-A-T (Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness) is going to become more important. Google will place a lot of weight on looking for subject matter experts, fact-checking, and a strong staff of experts owning the content. –Eric Enge, 48:22
