The discussion covers three critical implementation frameworks: establishing proper bot identification and crawling infrastructure to ensure AI systems can render and index retail content, implementing enhanced product feed optimization with structured data to improve AI reasoning capabilities, and developing intent mapping strategies that go beyond basic transactional categorization to align with customer journey touchpoints across conversational search experiences.
