then, many other social media platforms and discussion boards have emerged\u00a0 \u2013 from Instagram to TikTok, from YouTube to Reddit, from Medium to Soundcloud or Pinterest.<\/p>\n<p>All of them have a search box.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>All of them might be platforms users use to search for information, people, brands and products.<\/p>\n<p>Generative AI has been changing the landscape even more lately, introducing powerful generative AI into existing platforms and new tools: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, Copilot and Grok, to name a few.<\/p>\n<p>Typical social media sites have their own data sets largely based on users\u2019 content.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Generative AI models, however, leverage large language models (LLMs) that are trained using content from all over the web.<\/p>\n<p>This is why it is critical for your marketing to stay on top of your brand\u2019s presence across your audience\u2019s major platforms.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"

reputation heavily depends on the content hosted on the platform:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A bad product review video might show up when somebody searches for your product<\/li>\n<li>A video comparison between your course and a competitor\u2019s program could drive people to alternative products.<\/li>\n<li>A poorly performing video on your own channel might get your prospects to reconsider whether they want to do business with you.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>But before you now think of recording more and better videos, let\u2019s discuss a very often component of YouTube that\u2019s often overlooked:

attention to their video descriptions.<\/p>\n<p>While affiliates are used to populate their descriptions with affiliate links of their equipment, tools or suppliers, many businesses just fill the description box with a one-line summary or a link to their website.<\/p>\n<p>But how could your YouTube descriptions support your brand in a generative AI world?<\/p>\n<p>The value of YouTube descriptions to help train LLMs, at least at first glance, might be questionable, given the fact that it is clearly against YouTube\u2019s Terms of Service to scrape content from the platform, making
