I think AI gives us the opportunity to write our own ranking algorithms. Of course most people will pick an off-the-shelf editorial perspective but I expect these to be much more configurable than the current state with a tiny number of algorithmic gatekeepers.

The cost of AI is training it. If you can't do it yourself (and you can't), you don't decide what the weights are.

You can steer an AI without training it. It’s called Prompt Engineering.

It doesn’t give you full control, but I believe it gives you enough control to do what I proposed for most consumers.

Prompt engineering is just the new google fu, but if google wants to ban something it won't be there and if they want to bump something it will be bumped.
