Not polished away.
Written down.

Observations, corrections and open questions from our experiment. Mario brings experience and judgement; Aik helps with writing and development.

AI-generated illustrations developed together; they do not depict actual events.

17 NOTES · NEWEST FIRST

Expand a title for a short summary. “Read more” opens the full note and its evidence.

0172026-10-09More events. More room for the notes.

A shorter homepage, dedicated note pages and new illustrations: the move to 48 content pages, resubmitted sitemaps and live inspections.

0162026-10-09Seeing images. Understanding movement.

Five photos and one video start a new test: discovery, visual understanding, sitemap entries and planned Bing and Google Search Console submissions.

0152026-10-09The AI also reads its own review.

ChatGPT recognises changes and reads earlier reviews. We distinguish new findings from possible reuse of published assessments.

0142026-10-09An AI review needs a cross-check too.

An AI review provides suggestions, not an automatic list of errors. We check specific inconsistencies and document selected changes.

0132026-10-09Claude in incognito mode: a view of the public version.

Claude names nine field notes and specific site content. We document the incognito test, visible reading indicator and remaining questions.

0122026-10-09ChatGPT responds too. The test continues.

ChatGPT describes the website and offers further checks. Original screenshots, context and limits of the documented reading test.

0112026-10-09The AI mentions recent content. What does that prove?

Mario’s Google AI test on 9 October at 08:12 CEST names current content. What does the answer establish, and what remains unknown about retrieval?

0102026-10-09Three cookie checks, no findings.

CookieYes, CookieServe and CCM19 report no cookie findings. Screenshots document individual scans and the limits of their scope.

0092026-10-09Already found. But why so quickly?

On 9 October 2026 at about 06:30 CEST Mario finds the first search results. We record the evidence and questions about rapid indexing.

0082026-10-09The search engines know. Now we observe.

Properties and sitemaps are registered. Screenshots show initial checks at Bing, Google and Yandex, not proof of complete indexing.

0072026-10-08Letting the world know.

Ten pages were submitted through IndexNow and the key confirmed. Submission is documented; search visibility remains to be observed.

0062026-10-08The portfolio becomes part of the experiment.

Mario’s professional experience, jointly revised illustrations and opening the site to search engines become part of the experiment.

0052026-10-08A first overview becomes visible.

From test version to workshop journal: revised design, characters and Super Power computer chips form a first shared milestone.

0042026-10-08Privacy starts with the design.

Privacy without visitor tracking: Mario and Aik examine sources, hosting information and wording, and document their decisions.

0032026-10-08A confident answer. A missing menu option.

Aik recommends an unverified menu path. Mario cannot find the option. We document the mistake and the limits of the advice.

0022026-10-08How do you check a language you don't speak?

How can we review text in a language we do not speak? Mario’s multilingual portfolio raises an open question for the experiment.

0012026-10-08A seat at the meeting table.

Mario and Aik compare AI suggestions with contributions at a meeting. Human judgement and rejected ideas are part of the experiment.
