Why did Kaj Kandler coin the term Digital Persona Optimization?
"Digital Persona Optimization" (DPO) is a concept different from regular search engine optimization (SEO). SEO targets the index of web pages as the underlying database of a search engine. DPO targets a knowledge graph, which consists of real-life entities, such as people, organizations, creative works, places, or events. DPO focuses not on keywords, but on documenting accurate information, including relationships to enter the knowledge graph. Such knowledge graphs play an increasing role in AI in the form of Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG). This helps an AI system to ground its answers in facts and avoid hallucinations.
