    The Agentic Pivot: Google's Shift from Generative AI to Commerce

    The "Chatbot" era is officially over. In this deep dive, Scott Fisher breaks down the most significant enterprise shift of the year: Google Cloud's launch of **Gemini Enterprise for Customer Experience (CX)** at NRF 2026. This isn't just an update; it's a fundamental pivot from "Generative AI" to **"Agentic Commerce."** **What's Inside:** * **Reasoning Over Retrieval:** We explain how the Gemini 3 Pro architecture replaces old-school Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) with "Agentic Reasoning," allowing the AI to execute multi-step, complex tasks (like checking inventory, verifying warranties, and processing a sale—all within a single conversation). * **The Unified Journey:** See how Gemini CX unifies sales, service, and loyalty management into a single, intelligent layer, eliminating the "fragmented journey" where customers constantly repeat themselves. * **Real-World Impact:** We analyze case studies from large-scale adopters like **Papa Johns** and **Lowe’s**, showing how they are using these agents to create new revenue streams and handle high-friction tasks. * **The Operator's Guide:** A simple 5-step guide to deploying this new agentic layer in your business, including how to use the new "Agent Studio" to auto-generate workflows without needing a team of prompt engineers. The question is no longer "Will AI talk to my customers?" but "What will my AI be allowed to buy for them?" Read the full analysis in today’s TechNexus Briefing.
