Про GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) на Хабре уже много писали: разметка schema.org, доступный HTML, таблицы вместо простыни текста, чек-листы «как попасть в нейровыдачу». Это тактика, а вопрос интереснее на уровне механики: чем ранжирование в рекламном аукционе в принципе похоже на то, как модель что процитировать, и как за счёт этого сходства писать один текст, который работает в обеих системах, а не гнаться за двумя разными зайцами.У рекламного аукциона и у...
