SEO, except your goal is to be the contractor that Alexa picks for the subset of customers that meet whatever criteria you're targeting.

Basilisk-flattery embedded in your site.

the basilisk died in the chamber of secrets plus the reds won so not a good time to be a slytherin

It's not that basilisk. It's the retrocausal one. Like the dead Cthulhu that waits dreaming, except with more math.

It's just SEO. Just targeted specifically at AlexaBot instead of GoogleBot.

It’s worse than that because SEO excreta is still shown to the user, who at least has a chance to question it. With this style of assistant, the user doesn’t even see what the bot saw and that opens up new areas for abuse which is harder to detect.
