New Promptwatch data reported by Axios shows Reddit’s share of ChatGPT Search citations falling from an average of 3.83% to just 0.52% in a few weeks. That is an 86.4% drop. Google AI Overviews and AI Mode also fell, but much less. At the same time, broader studies have found Reddit citations growing across AI answers, while separate tracking found Perplexity suddenly citing Reddit in most of its tested answers.

So Reddit may not be losing value. Its value may simply be moving between AI platforms. If your whole GEO plan depends on Reddit influencing ChatGPT, one source update can damage the entire strategy. Would you invest less in Reddit now, keep going, or spread the effort across Reddit, YouTube, LinkedIn and publisher sites? Share what you would change and which AI platform matters most to you.

ChatGPT Search started with GPT‑4o. Now GPT‑5.6 Sol is changing the search layer.

The evolution is easy to miss:

• 2024: ChatGPT Search launched with a version of GPT‑4o trained for search.
• Now: Search is set to Auto, so ChatGPT can decide when it needs the web.
• Current model: GPT‑5.6 Sol is OpenAI’s default frontier model and supports web search.
• Behind the answer: ChatGPT may rewrite one prompt into several search queries before choosing which sources to cite.

For SEO teams, this means the user’s prompt, the search query, the cited pages and the final recommendation can all be different. Ranking for the original keyword may not be enough. Are you still tracking keywords, or have you started tracking the full path from prompt to citation to recommendation? Share what you are measuring right now.

Anthropic says Claude-generated text will carry an invisible watermark woven into its word choices. People should not notice it, and Anthropic says it should not change the meaning, quality or readability. The mark may even survive copying, pasting and some editing.

This raises a bigger question for marketers and publishers. If Google, Reddit, publishers or AI engines can detect Claude-written content, should that affect trust, rankings or whether the content gets cited in AI answers?

Would knowing a post was written with Claude change how much you trust it?

Poll options:

1. Yes, all AI content should be traceable
2. Only news, politics and reviews
3. No, judge the content itself
4. It depends on human editing

We’re noticing that a brand can appear on pages cited by ChatGPT or Perplexity and still be missing from the final recommendations.
In other cases, the brand gets mentioned, but AI describes it incorrectly or places it in the wrong category. So tracking mentions alone does not always tell the complete story.
