Short answer

Conversational search is searching through a multi-turn dialogue with an AI, where follow-up questions build on earlier context instead of starting a new query each time. Users can refine, compare, and clarify naturally. It changes how people research products, favoring content that answers detailed, specific questions rather than short keyword queries.
