AI is transforming the way we shop both online and in retail stores by making the experience more personalized, efficient, and seamless. From product recommendations and virtual tryons to automated checkouts and smart inventory management, AI helps retailers understand customer preferences and streamline operations. As a result, shopping is becoming faster, more convenient, and tailored to individual needs.
THE FUTURE
Google is expanding its AI functions within Shopping. Users will soon be able to not only search for and buy products, but also virtually try on clothing using their own photo and track price changes of products. See below image for version of this new try on tech.
After uploading a personal photo, the garment is digitally projected onto the body.
The improved try-on tool, called try on me, responds to the growing demand for hybrid shopping solutions. Google's research shows that 59 percent of online shoppers are dissatisfied with their purchase, often because the product looks different than expected.
The functions will be rolled out in the United States over the coming months. It is not yet known when these AI functions will become available in other countries.

AI TO STREAMLINE FASHION
E-COMMERCE WITH IMAGE-BASED SEARCH TOOLS
As you can see in this example sequence, Pinterest is updating its visual search process to simplify discovery, based on specific elements of a Pin image.
As explained by Pinterest: “We’re breaking down and decoding images so users can quickly search and shop for the details of an outfit. Whether it’s an overall aesthetic, a color palette, a specific fit, or product category, when users view a Pin, we’ll now generate the words they can use to figure out what they like about the image, and then further explore and shop.”
As artificial intelligence weaves
its way into the fabric of daily life, new technologies and features have taken a decidedly retail turn…
ChatGPT's selection process, while based on relevance, price, ratings, and userprovided context (including learned preferences), introduces a powerful new vector for impulse buying. The seamless integration of suggestion and purchase could bypass the more considered decisionmaking processes that consumers might typically engage in when browsing traditional e-commerce sites or physical stores.
OpenAI's unveiling of ChatGPT's new shopping feature marks a significant evolution in how consumers might discover and ultimately acquire goods.
The premise is simple: when a user inquires about an item, the chatbot will proactively present visual carousels of relevant products, complete with details and links to purchase.
What happens when the customer journey no longer starts with a click — but with a conversation?
