Explore how Amazon’s AI shopping agents signal the next wave of retail automation — and how Profitmind helps brands stay ahead in the AI economy.

WIRED covered Amazon’s increasing application of AI, including for shopping guides and customer support, and quoted retail AI expert and Profitmind CEO, Dr. Mark Chrystal.
In February 2024, Amazon added the Rufus chatbot that can answer a wide range of questions about Amazon’s many products. The bot uses a bespoke large language model—the kind of algorithm that powers ChatGPT.
Dr. Mark Chrystal describes how LLM agents represent “a customer service game changer.” He shares his views that “the data-rich will continue to get richer and the data-poor will get poorer.”

AI agents surge in retail as Shopify invests in agentic commerce, spending jumps 63% to $57B, and Goddiva reports conversion rates doubling with AI tools.
