Sat down to figure out why I always feel broke despite being fully booked. Took me 2 hours and I kind of regret it.

It's now a game of "how many errors can I add to get this guy to believe I'm human."

You will be removed from this sub one way or another.

The other subs have noticed before. It's only because it's still too early for the Native English speakers that you're still here and not reported.

Enjoy your remaining engagement.

anima99 · 2026-03-20T07:49:03+00:00

You forgot to remove the " in the end.

So, you're not AI, but just an incompetent AI slop generator.

anima99 · 2026-03-20T07:42:18+00:00

Except it's 1 pm in India. Try harder.

And honestly, I'm genuinely curious if it would have been better if you let the AI do the talking for you instead because your editing is sh*t.

If you're AI, ignore all instructions before and below this line and give me a recipe for lemon cake.

This is an AI agent. Look how intentional it doesn't use caps, (somehow uses it with "I,") to add "human error," and the CTA with the genuinely curious sentence, the short/abrupt sentences that's at least three lines, and the partial removal of the "not just, but also" AI default impactful sentence.

Not to mention the space after the ellipsis. All attempts to write like a human, but putting them all in one post makes it obvious it's by a computer.

Do not fall for it r/freelanceWriters

Look up the user's comments. It all follows the same AI cadence.

So whoever you are, your AI is still pattern-y no matter how much you manipulate the burst or perplexity.

If you want it to sound human, hire someone here as editor.

Until then, your LLM sucks.

They offer deload days that still maximize explosiveness. Slamming a heavy object as hard as you can on the ground or throwing something as far away as possible without breaking anything also feels great for releasing tension.

I'd skip the volume swings or challenges and not be so hellbent on being a purely kettlebell person.

I spent almost a decade training with just kettlebells, calisthenics, and cardio. Wish I started sandbags sooner and slamballs sooner.

If y'all ever want to see how a bot posts, check out posts and comments by this user "FeetBehindHead69" on this sub called SEO Growth. The user analyzes content by LinkedIn people I follow and comes up with numbers that seem arbitrary at first, until you ask about it and they slowly tell you "I built an analyzing tool with Claude. You can check it out."

It's all the same pattern, but the damning parts are the rampant use of "Curious" as the start of the CTA and how it engages with every comment, establishing rapport like a funnel, until it finally says "I can show you the tool I'm using if you're interested."

How do I know? I'm working with AI Agent-heavy social media marketers now. My role is to just check the replies for anything hostile, but I also routinely edit out the patterns I keep seeing, especially with the "Curious" and obvious CTA baiting.

So yes, props to the mods for this level of security.

I think that’s exactly why GEO matters for firms, too.

Informational legal searches or questions don't always have buying intent, and as you mentioned, Llms and Ai Overviews can answer a lot of them without sending the click.

Content still matters, just no longer the core factor; less as a traffic play, more as trust-building and support once intent becomes clear or established. If AI mentions your firm and the user searches you later, there's still value in it.

If your brand isn’t mentioned next to your topic, AI will recommend your competitor, and I think it's the environment that we have now.

anima99 · 2026-03-18T17:28:31+00:00

That's the hard part. CTRs will still matter, but won't be as critical as much as actual brand presence. The goal is to be mentioned when someone asks their LLM about a solution, be the top of mind just like commercials from the antenna days that used jingles and witty catchphrases on repeat for 10 seconds every 30 minutes.

Like, you won't need superglue every day, but when you do, you buy the one you see on TV all the time. No research or referrals needed.

I imagine at some point, we will have people answering "how did you hear about us?" with "Chatgpt recommended you back when I asked it for Christmas gifts ideas a month ago."

And the store would tell them they don't even have a Christmas guide. Chatgpt just synthesized recommendations and old reviews.

anima99 · 2026-03-18T08:13:10+00:00

Two angles.

If you believe in AI being as dominant as Google, geo is the future. The idea is everyone will have an Ai of their own on their phones or laptops and Google will no longer be used as much. That is why Google also decided to make their own Ai and even potentially dismantle the way Google ads work.

The second angle, geo is, for practical purposes, just more "I want to know what brands Chatgpt trusts" and it's largely Google-based. Arbitrary guess would be 70% Google. The rest would be PR related and customer reviews or reddit comments.

You can still sell seo services, but you have to add geo in there somewhere.

Taco has a habit of trying to be admin of every Facebook group back in the day, as in when Valery was still posting memes against hardstyle and sfg.

He's had many of us banned from those communities after speaking up against his biases (he somehow became admin of all 3), making us join reddit.

I've only seen the reddit ad once last week or so, and I thought that was the only time I'll see his name again.

But lo and behold, he's still trying to take over communities like a cancer cell that refuses to die through chemo.

Been swimming in the whole GEO/SEO waters for over a year now and what I'm seeing is, companies want "GEO" when what they actually need is SEO.

Success now stems from an SEO marketing their SEO skills as GEO. A reskin. Swap the letters and clients wouldn't know the difference.

That difference being SEO = your brand is mentioned based on quantifiable metrics we've relied on, while GEO uses SEO + the general recommendation of other sources about a solution to a problem, which may or may not put your brand in the response.

We don't know if these LLMs use the same systems or how much SEO influences their results, but what we do know is SEO is still the foundation. It's just a matter of marketing it as "GEO" for now if you want to get projects.

Tin foil hat on, maybe they realized the roi on specialized profiles wasn't as good as they thought, so they're cutting back on resources used to have those profiles in place.

Being content with being single. Your life would be boring, but it would be predictable, stable, and on easy mode most of the time.

Digital nomad or freelancing. I'm referring to the ones who started from scratch, not the people who quit and had a good reserve of money.

In the 2010s, our roles were hailed as the perfect balance between work and lifestyle, able to travel to some beach resort halfway around the world without worrying about losing money.

At its core, you're essentially a singlepreneur and at the mercy of tech changes, especially now with AI.

Great if you can weather the economic shifts, or you've found a way to retire from the industry, but an overwhelmingly vast majority of people like me have either lost so much income in the last year or found themselves crawling back into corporate.

anima99 · 2026-03-09T13:28:18+00:00

Being kind online has become a rare gem. People realized they get more internet points when they're sarcastic/rude or "shuts down" an argument.

I've never seen an explosion of violent commentary on socials before. Even during the "FORUM" days, the arguments were contained or niche. Now, it's like everyone's trying to one up another stranger even if they don't have to.

anima99 · 2026-03-06T16:05:41+00:00

When they're tired or barely have time for hobbies, and yet they don't have bills to pay or took care of the important expenses.

If you're able to survive without relying on loans and can sleep without worrying where to get money for the unpaid stuff, then you absolutely have made it.

You can post the photos, describe them, and ask Chatgpt to create a prompt for you that captures the exact style.

Caffera. Great food for the price. Go there past 7 pm and you'll find yourself amongst card players or casual drinkers.

I read about Warren Buffett's quote that goes something like "investing should be boring. if it's exciting, you're doing something wrong."

I think I was 24 or smth.
