Will AI kill Google and SEO?

The rise of AI tools like ChatGPT and the introduction of AI Overviews in search are transforming how people find information online. In this fast-paced 30-minute talk, Tony Southgate from Ginger Pickle explores the shifting landscape of search and what it means for business owners.

Is traditional SEO on its way out?

Will AI chatbots replace Google as the go-to source for answers?

Tony will cut through the hype to explain how AI is reshaping user behaviour, content discovery, and website traffic — and what you can do to stay visible in this new era.
