Many that know me, know that for several years, my day started and ended on Feedly.com. I scanned dozens, perhaps hundreds of sources each day. #Marketing, business tech, #AI, startups, hot apps. I worked through them three times a day: morning with my first cup of coffee, lunch, and often, right before bed. That last pass was probably why I couldn't fall asleep many nights. My mind would still be going 100 mph at midnight. But now... Now, an #AiAgent does much of that reading for me. It scans the same sources I previously scanned manually, on a schedule, and hands me a short brief on what matters. And let me be transparent here. Many days, I never open the original sites at all. I organize and bookmark them for later, avoiding what used to be an urgent FOMO need to read them right then. The publications, blogs and news articles I relied on for years now reach me through a layer of software that decides what deserves my attention. If a source isn't clear, credible, and easy for that agent to understand, it doesn't make the brief. Now I read 30 to 40 articles a day and almost all of them are interesting. I have no idea what didn't make the list. (although I do sometimes go back and look to ensure the AI is still aligned with me) However... I have become the thing I write about. And it's about to happen at scale. Meta's #Muse passed 5 million downloads within weeks of its September launch and has been trading the No. 1 free spot on the App Store with #ChatGPT. It books, buys, emails, and manages accounts on your behalf. Google and OpenAI are building their own. This is not a shopping tool, it is a stand-in proxy that reads, sorts, and decides across nearly everything a person does online. Which raises a question most businesses have not asked yet: if an agent visits your site today, can it easily tell what you offer, who it's for, and what the next step is? Can it actually take that step? Being cited was the first milestone of AI visibility. Being actionable could be the second. I'm writing an article about what that shift looks like, and I think it dramatically changes who gets found.

I'll be at HumanX 2027 Las Vegas, March 7-10, 2027. It's four days with the people actually building, scaling, and deploying AI across the enterprise. Use code HX27U_sn0b100 for $100 off your All-Access Pass: i.snoball.it/p/29bF8sSQ/t #HumanX

Love @ManusAI but the support… not so much. Similar scripted responses for 24 hours now and then a “issue resolved email?” What? Rep does not understand “pre-render” issue and won’t escalate to someone who does. 3 sites - same issue on all 3.
