What happens to brands when consumers stop searching Google and start asking AI what to buy?

They also look further ahead at the rise of AI shopping agents, clickless checkout, social commerce, TikTok Shop and a future where AI could automatically choose products, book hotels, answer emails and make increasingly important decisions on behalf of consumers.
Krystian also explains why businesses that ignore this shift risk being left behind, how AI could reshape white-collar jobs and agencies, and why human strategy, judgement, creativity and accountability may become more valuable as automation accelerates.
