Google and all the other algorithm related content platforms have had this power before AI and have been using it as well. I think AI is a new layer to the SEO war.

I don't care for the grand conspiracy claims though. It's pretty obvious Google will optimize their search engine and the question answering to benefit their bottom line.

Maybe there are people actively working towards evil within Google. I think it's more likely some people recognize the implications of changes, some people don't but no one is working against those changes and ultimately the system will be capable to be used for very bad things and will do bad things naturally.

Anyway a better title would have been: Google's AI is the newest website killing feature
