Presentation
AI in E-Commerce and Retail: Where are we?


From the warehouse to the customer, smart algorithms are changing retail, because retail – like other industries – is facing major challenges. Customers expect permanent availability of services and goods – online and in stores – and at the same time an individually-tailored shopping experience. In addition, retail is under permanent margin pressure and is confronted with extensive digitization of its own processes for competitive reasons. Artificial intelligence plays out its potential in all these fields. The presentation aims to give an overview of the state of the application and shed light on some best practice examples.
