AI answer reading
A recorded check of what an AI answer engine tells a person who asks for a business's phone number, address and hours, compared field by field with the business's own record, with the sources the engine cites. A wrong value is traced to the directory or other business it came from.
What AI answer reading means
Answers vary between askings, so one reading shows what an engine said at that moment.
