AI and Machine Learning

Reducing costs and improvement in efficiency is always an agenda for most businesses and particularly so for online ordering and shopping. Customers see these efficiency by means of using the online product and of course is reflected in the cost savings of the shipments. Ease of doing business and can be achieved by deep-learning, machine and other efficiency algorithms. Research has provided many great algorithms and can be applied to transactions and applying to its variables such as sales, searches, patterns to predict what customers will buy.


AI system development today is lot easier and proved to be reliable—it predicts with accuracy and need less human intervention. It would be impossible in some cases to go through the volumes of data by a person to scrutinise the variety of products and hence machine processing Is the way to the future. Online retailing is an obvious are to apply  machine-learning technology and seek returns.


Overall the supply chain will improve in efficiency and also customers get items sooner, which improves customer retention and the technology is also benefiting the environment, because fewer transactions due to efficiency improvement.


AI will still need more work and hence the people but the touch points are taken care by AI. Product uniqueness need more research continuously tweaking algorithms and also efforts to be able to be competitive with giants such as Amazon and Google. It’s always going to be catch up game with race to new features.
