You need to write SEO and enterprise research text for AIs now, in addition to humans. Does this mean separate pages, often hidden from humans like we see for search engine SEO? Probably.
A Gartner survey of 377 U.S. consumers, conducted in June and July 2025, revealed that rather than shortcutting decisions, AI features are lengthening the research journey. Thirty-one percent of consumers surveyed say AI summaries cause them to spend more time searching for information, compared to just 16% who spend less. Over two-thirds continue past Google’s AI Overview, signaling that summaries are not the final answer. When researching purchases, 31% of consumers consider more product options due to AI overviews, versus only 7% who consider fewer.
And:
“Winning visibility now means optimizing for both AI-driven answers and classic search results, with content that is specific, conversational, and trustworthy. That means refreshing content regularly across search, social, and retail platforms, as well as investing in comparison tools, FAQs, and reviews to meet consumers' demand for deeper research and broader consideration sets.”
Also, if everyone is doing more research (because it’s faster to get smarter), investor relations needs to adapt as well.
