Going to evaluate not just the prompt you entered, but also everything it knows about you from previous conversations and this conversation

Surgically placing recommendations for your brand on those pages can be very effective. Tomorrow I'm gonna be talking about a new Google patent that has a potential to replace websites entirely.
