    🤖 In This Episode
    • What an "answer engine" is—and how it changes everything
    • Why AI-driven search reduces the number of clicks and reshapes attribution
    • How Razorfish is redefining paid + organic search teams
    • The concept of “The Correction” in AI search and marketing metrics

    • Strategies for preparing shopping feeds for AI commerce (e.g., Perplexity & ChatGPT)
    • Why traditional conversion metrics may be obsolete in an AI-first world
    • How "AI literacy" is becoming an essential skill for marketers
    • The tools and prompts Razorfish uses to track brand presence in AI models
