The AI part may be new, but the SEO abuse is not. The AI stuff just makes an already bad situation worse and getting worse faster than ever.

Don't take what I'm saying as defending Google or anything, they clearly could and should do better, but even if they were doing everything right it's only part of the problem right now.
