A recent investigation has uncovered a burgeoning industry centered around the manipulation of AI models through a process known as 'poisoning.' According to insider sources, a service called GEO allows users to pay for their products to be prominently featured in major AI models, effectively turning their advertisements into the model's "standard answer." This practice has led to the rise of numerous companies and platforms dedicated to content publishing, ensuring their material is referenced and scraped by large AI models. These entities play a critical role in targeting and manipulating AI models with biased data, raising concerns about the integrity and reliability of AI-generated information.
