In the late 90s before the term SEO was widely used I tried explaining to the head of the photo department of a newspaper why the Flash based photo gallery he wanted to use wasn't the best solution. And all he kept saying was, "If it looks better, more people will use it." And try as I might to explain the value of being available to search using metaphors like "yellow pages", I ultimately failed.
Is inclusion into AI the new version of that argument?
