AI in Customer Experience: The Retail’s Next Phase

Why AI is Reshaping Shopping—And Why It’s Not for Everyone

Artificial intelligence is fundamentally transforming customer experience in retail, but not every business is benefiting equally.

Amazon and Alibaba are making significant investments in artificial intelligence, with Amazon’s AWS division specifically establishing a team dedicated to the development of Agentic AI. These technologies enable real-time analytics to predict demand, adjust pricing, and automate customer interactions—reshaping how retailers engage with customers.

While large retailers leverage AI to optimize efficiency, smaller businesses often struggle to keep up. This growing divide is pushing the retail industry toward two distinct models:

✔ AI-driven, hyper-efficient retail—Automated checkouts, AI-powered recommendations, and predictive shopping.

✔ Traditional, human-centric experiences—Personalized service, curated selections, and a return to in-store connections.

For businesses, the challenge is deciding where to position themselves in this AI-driven shift.
