AI is killing the customer journey as we know it. By 2026, 25% of queries will be handled by AI assistantsānot traditional search engines.
Traffic is moving off Google to LLMs. Conversions are happening off-site.
If you're still optimizing for clicks and impressions, you're already behind. Here's what to do:
canceled youtube premium after 3 years to test how bad the ads actually are.
they're worse than i expected.
mobile: ads every few scrolls, while paused, 3-4 breaks in a 30 min video (5-10 sec skippable).
tv gets brutal: same 30 min video, 3-4 ad breaks, 30-60 sec non-skippable each.
probably worth just paying for it.
The shift isn't about chasing every platform. It's about owning the relationship.
AI search is a distribution channel, not a strategy. Use it where it works. Ignore it where it doesn't. Don't optimize yourself out of business. ā”
