Key reading

Luxury Hospitality · Singapore · AI citation · September 21–27, 2026

youtube.com accumulated the highest AI citation share on this market at 25.14% across the 7-run window. facebook.com follows at 15.52%, and instagram.com records 12.84%. The 4 sources behind youtube.com range from 15.52% down to 5.14%, and the top 2 actors together hold more than the remaining 3 combined. The spread between the rank-1 and rank-5 positions is 20.00 percentage points, yet the panel is notable less for its concentration at the top than for the complete absence of specialist hospitality domains from the governed top-5 citation panel.
