What this score means

Your AEO score measures whether AI search engines (ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini) can actually read your site and cite it in answers. Two-thirds of websites are invisible to them. Brian Bergstein just got measured.

5/10 means Brian Bergstein is borderline visible. AI bots can crawl your site but your structured-data signals are thin. You are at risk of being skipped when buyers ask AI for a recommendation.

About Brian Bergstein

Science and technology journalist Brian Bergstein. Editor of Boston Globe Ideas section.

Key Topics

I am a writer and editor in Boston. Currently I'm editor of the Ideas section at the Boston Globe. Before joining the Globe's opinion desk, I was executive editor of MIT Technology Review, where I helped lead our overall editorial coverage and worked with fantastic writers on big ideas. We were nominated twice for the National Magazine Award in general excellence. I oversaw big editorial packages like 10 Breakthrough Technologies, 35 Innovators Under 35, and 50 Smartest Companies. In 2017 I conceived and edited a special issue on artificial intelligence. In 2017 and 2018 I served as the founding editor of neo.life, later called proto.life. It was a publication begun by one of the founders of Wired to chronicle the ways technology is changing biology. In 2019 I edited an anthology about the future of humans. As a freelancer I've contributed to MIT Technology Review, OneZero, Elemental, the Boston Globe, Bostonia, and Protocol. Once upon a time I was technology and media editor for The Associated Press, after stints as a telecom and technology beat writer, the Silicon Valley correspondent, a national news editor, and a general-assignment reporter in Chicago. I got my start with reporting internships at the Lexington Herald-Leader in Kentucky and the Reuters bureau in Jerusalem. In 2004-05, I was a Knight Fellow in Science Journalism at MIT.
