Same Prompt, Different HVAC Picks: What Our AI Search Test Revealed
· 27 minutes · Aaron Husak and ChatGPT
Aaron and his ChatGPT co-host compare Gemini HVAC recommendations, recurring companies, changing sources, and what one AI answer can and cannot tell a home service business.
What we explore
- How the companies and visible sources vary across Gemini Flash and Pro runs.
- The difference between a mention, a citation, and a fixed search ranking.
- What service pages communicate, and why that does not prove what caused a recommendation.
- Why capturing the actual prompts customers use can improve your next test.
This episode documents an exploratory test, not a controlled experiment or a guarantee of AI recommendations. ChatGPT participates as an AI co-host with a synthetic voice. Product descriptions, company claims, and figures discussed in the recording have not been independently verified for this page.
