• How AI search really picks winners: ChatGPT, LLMs and the future of retail discovery

  As more of us ask ChatGPT what to buy — instead of Googling it — the rules of being discovered online are changing fast.In today’s episode, we dig into how large language models like ChatGPT, Claude and Perplexity are quietly becoming the new front door to retail.
