Does AI know who you are? And why that matters
People increasingly ask a chat model instead of a search engine when looking for an expert. If your name is not in that answer, you are not there.
“Can you recommend a good dietitian in Istanbul?” is a question more and more often put to a chat model. The model returns a list, and being on that list is a new form of visibility.
How the measurement must work
One detail is critical: the measurement must run with web search OFF. With search on, the model looks things up and finds something about everyone — so everyone comes out “visible”. What matters is whether you exist in the model's own knowledge.
Measuring with search enabled is an open-book exam — everybody passes and the result tells you nothing.
Models invent things
A model can say “yes, I know them” and then produce details about you that do not exist. Scoring the raw answer is misleading. Every claim has to be checked against research, and a model that invents has to lose its score. Otherwise the measurement is fooling itself.
How visibility actually grows
Models learn from text on the internet. Your name appearing alongside a subject, consistently and in more than one place, makes a difference over time. Not one viral video — steady, coherent content around the same subject.
The fastest way to judge any of this is to see it on your own account.
