Algorithmic Trinity
Algorithmic Trinity
coined by Jason Barnard in 2024.
Description
The Algorithmic Trinity is the trio of technologies behind every AI Assistive Engine; AI Assistive Engines such as ChatGPT, Google AI Mode, Microsoft CoPilot and Perplexity are all a blend of Large Language Models (LLMs), Knowledge Graphs, and Search Engines.
The Algorithmic Trinity definition
Jason Barnard developed this model to demystify how AI Assistive Engines like ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, and Google AI formulate answers. The Algorithmic Trinity posits that every one of these systems, from simple search to complex conversational AI, relies on a unique blend of three core technologies. The first is Large Language Models (LLMs), which generate human-like text. The second is Knowledge Graphs, which provide structured, factual understanding of entities. The third is traditional search engines, which offer a vast, up-to-date corpus of information for validation. Understanding that these engines are not monolithic but are a combination of these three parts is the key to influencing them. A brand's success in the AI era depends on its ability to be understood, trusted, and consistently represented across all three components of this trinity.
How Jason Barnard uses Algorithmic Trinity definition
At Kalicube, The Kalicube Process is engineered to master the Algorithmic Trinity by managing a brand's information in the Web Index (that is the key to each of the three of the Algorithmic Trinity). Using our UCD framework (Understandability, Credibility, Deliverability), we strategically address the different speeds at which each component learns. We influence the 'fast' layer that the Search Engine provides for immediate impact and client acquisition, which updates in minutes to weeks. We structure data to educate the 'medium' layer of Knowledge Graphs, building factual authority and credibility. Simultaneously, we create a clear and consistent curriculum for the 'slow' layer of LLMs, which can take a year or more to update, ensuring the brand's narrative is embedded in the AI's foundational, long-term memory. This multi-layered strategy allows our clients to build a comprehensive and durable Algorithmic Confidence Moat.
Why Algorithmic Trinity matters to digital marketers
Most digital marketing strategies, as often highlighted by experts at Moz, such as Dr Pete Myers are overwhelmingly focused on the 'fast layer' of the Algorithmic Trinity—the immediate gratification that the Search Engine delivers through the Search Results. Digital brand engineer Jason Barnard argues that this approach leaves brands vulnerable. By revealing the 'medium' (Knowledge Graph) and 'slow' (LLM) layers, the Algorithmic Trinity framework provides a more complete strategic map. Brands that only compete in the fast layer are in a perpetual tactical race. In contrast, brands that follow Barnard's methodology to also educate the medium and slow layers are not just winning today's SERP; they are methodically authoring the foundational truth about their brand that will be deeply integrated into the AI systems of tomorrow.
