get through and it takes me several hours to get to it. So please excuse any of that comment spam.
Bearing in mind that most of the real estate in Discover is full of of YouTube and X posts, this is clearly nonsense. Another instance of the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing at Google - and smaller publishers die as the Open Web is destroyed because of a Google marketing ploy.
Just the first 10 days of December alone, I've made more revenue than the entire month of December in previous years. Iām like an eagle soaring in the air. To the moon!
By explicitly noting these ongoing "smaller core updates" ā which they've done quietly since 2019 but now spell out in the devs' guide ā they're nudging site owners to focus on real improvements rather than calendar-watching. It's like the algorithm equivalent of compound interest: consistent tweaks compound over time, rewarding quality content without the fanfare.
Whatever they do, I hope they don't boost a mostly AI blog that's been stealing and rewriting my content. Wish there were a way to report this nonsense.
Damn, that Non Player Combat is genuinely terrible. I mean don't get me wrong it's crazy that it was made entirely from AI and I fully understand this tech will get better but if it wasn't for the novelty that it is AI it would not have any entertainment value whatsoever.
That way they won't have to announce a large core update...
Given John has said they do updates every day, I'm not surprised of little core updates.
Famous actors will probably only be able to sell their likeness for sequels, for new film series, they won't need established stars, if you look at Harry Potter, Star Wars, Lord of the Rings and James Bond, the films used relative unknowns so famous actors aren't all that special to a successful film, they may help not as much as a 20 million USD may like to think. The Bourne films could have been just as successful with an unknown and could easily be done with an AI actor.
Film cost production may come down but will tickets?
Does explain why we got no new Bond, AI Bond, lol.

Gemini 3, one minute ago. Good luck, USA, and good luck to us, NATO partners.
if you are a famous actor, singer, or anything, you can sell rights to your image. If you are a newcomer, you will struggle. AI is going to pretty much end the possibility of upward mobility.
Except they've been rolling out new functionality within Search Console for the last two months. Admittedly, they've still not added explicit AIO/AIM reporting for impressions/citations/clicks, which SEOs are crying out for, but they have said this information is included in the regular performance report.
