How can generative AI in e-commerce help to optimize sales processes and improve the customer experience?

Summary:

Artificial intelligence (AI) is intended to assist employees with simple routine tasks in e-commerce.

In online retail, companies want to improve the way they work and offer customers a better shopping experience. Generative AI can be used in e-commerce to automatically create search engine optimized (SEO) product descriptions and thus achieve more deals and to be found more quickly in Google. In addition, AI helps you create or edit product images for your online shop. This creates many resources and increasing quality in graphic processing and product image optimization. AI can also strongly support customer support and customer service.

Initial situation:

The creation of search engine optimized product texts and images, which must be both appealing and brand-compliant, plays a central role. At the same time, efficient and personalized customer service is crucial to increasing customer satisfaction and loyalty. AI can provide important support for these resource-intensive tasks, particularly for routine tasks and simple processes.
