Lily Ray slams the trend of AI-generated industry comments: "It's not working"

- SEO expert Lily Ray calls out a spreading tactic: having AI post comments everywhere that name-drop the business's industry, like "we see this a lot in the garage door repair space" or "we found that 67% of pest control businesses." Her advice to businesses: stop — it's not working.
- The attached screenshot shows a typical example: an account with 13 followers posting generic expert-sounding takes on follow-up metrics and how agent-mediated searches will muddy the stats.
- These low-cost AI comments are polluting industry discussions and risk damaging brand credibility rather than building it.
