The thing is 'website' is going to lose meaning when there are trillions of them, all blandly AI.

It's kind of an instantiation of the creators idea of what you want to see at a point in time. But why not use AI to generate the visitor's prefered presentation of what it is you have to present, in real time?

That's what most big e-commerce websites already do. From the moment you have a login the content is personalised to you.

Ah yes, I see you bought a mattress. May I recommend these other mattresses to add to your collection?

This guy must really love mattresses!

Maybe we can get him to subscribe to mattresses!

Its weird that no one has cracked: you bought a mattress recently, would you like to buy these bed sets or bed frames? Complementary goods are not exactly rocket science. If I go to a a dealer and buy a car they try and upsell me on features on the car, they don't try and sell me another car.

how does this differ from letting non-tech savvy people build their website?

Time and effort.

website personalization is a huge evolving market, which at the moment only works for super large ecomm sites with large and well trained marketing teams.

It makes a lot of sense that we will see disruption in this area using some AI powered stuff.

google has SEO'ed the internet to death a long time ago
