How AI Sentiment is Formed
AI platforms synthesize sentiment from:
- Your published content — What you say about yourself
- Third-party coverage — Reviews, press, social mentions
- Structured data — Ratings, review schema
- Criticism response — How you address issues
- Comparisons — How you're described vs competitors
