Reply To: Anyone else seeing AI snippets ignore real pages?

From my experience, yeah, I’ve seen it enough times now that I don’t really buy the “best page wins” story anymore. It’s more like the system grabs whatever gives it the easiest semantic foothold, even if the actual page is better. Clean page can be sitting there with proper headings, links, all that, and some trashy forum post with the right phrasing gets picked instead. Honestly feels like a retrieval problem, not a content quality problem. Which is annoying, because the usual advice people keep parroting is basically useless here.
