Summary
Google advises against creating 'bite-sized' content specifically for Large Language Models (LLMs) as an SEO strategy, emphasizing that content should be created for people rather than search algorithms.

In the current turbulent internet landscape with inconsistent traffic and AI expansion, publishers may be tempted by such SEO 'snake oil' tactics, but Google maintains that focusing on human readers is the best long-term approach for search ranking.
