The problem? Hardcoded links rot when slugs change. The solution? A neural link architecture that uses vector embeddings, hybrid ranking algorithms, and AI to automatically inject semantically relevant links at render-time. This system eliminates link rot, scales to thousands of articles, and ensures every link is contextually relevant. Here's how I built a semantic linker that treats websites as living knowledge graphs for AI citation systems.
