The linked article does his math wrong - the ad revenue per page view is $0.00258, so the profit per page is actually $0.00207.
This will radically accelerate the problem of search results being full of AI-generated spam.

Surely this is just overusing the term "AI" when its more appropriate to use machine-learning here. The image recognition technology to read text has been trained on people doing captchas. All those recaptchas you did where it gave you 2? One was you giving them data on something their system couldn't recognise and the other was them actually testing you. This became the technology to read handwritten and scanned text.
Calling it AI is a stretch in my opinion. There's no "intelligence". We've just reached the point where they apply it to anything and everything if machine learning is involved in any way.
Yep exactly, that's why I put it in quotes, because iirc in the episode itself they still call it 'AI' and I wanted to convey that yes, they are using that technology.
