A new study has audited the recommendation capabilities of major AI systems like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity for local venues in Bali. The research found that these AI models significantly under-recommend actual businesses, with 85.6% of venues never appearing in recommendations. Visibility is linked to factors like review volume and online mentions, rather than star ratings, and AI systems frequently recommended permanently closed establishments. AI
IMPACT Highlights a significant gap in AI's ability to accurately represent the real-world commercial landscape, impacting local discovery and business visibility.
