Consumer agents are going to intermediate shopping. Ecommerce sites will become irrelevant much faster than you think.

Agents will crush the "experience bar" set by even the best storefronts. They can integrate new tech (eg virtual try-ons) overnight and learn faster than any a/b test.

Retailers can sit and watch: Perplexity, ChatGPT, etc. will cut retailers off from the direct relationship that fuels LTV.

Or they can take the lead and align on a Retail-Model-Context-Protocol: With a clean unified schema for catalogs, open search / reco endpoints and stable identity schemes for both agents and humans.

This can make agents a boon for ecommerce. A real manifestation of the "omni channel" dream rather than its assassin.

Why does MacOS not ship with the GNU keychain? Why do I need to pay $4.99 and download 3 gigs for XCode?
