E-commerce: use artificial intelligence for a personalised experience

 

One of the problems that e-commerce merchants have to face is abandoned site visits which are caused by irrelevant product results. One of the ways to deal with this problem is to use artificial intelligence. For instance, natural language processing can be used to narrow down and contextualise search results for online shoppers.

One of the ways in which an artificial intelligence software can help is that it can leverage machine learning to automatically tag, organise and visually search content by labelling features from an image or video. Pinterest is already using such a system. For instance, it has updated its Chrome extension so that users are able to select a photograph online and ask the social media platform to find similar items. This is done via an image recognition software. Such technologies can be used by e-commerce merchants to help shoppers find what they want on their website within a few clicks only.

Consumers are aware of the new technologies being developed every day. As such, they have more expectations with regards to the way they shop online. Thus, being a business owner or an e-commerce marketer, it is your responsibility to be aware of these changes, to introduce new tools and to build a unified experience.
