π TRICK OR TREAT? AI IS SERVING UP BOTH. From rewriting product pages to reshaping shopping carts, pricing and product discovery, AI is taking a bigger role in how consumers shop and how brands compete.
October reinforced that AI isn't just changing how shoppers find products. It's changing who controls the shopping experience, the content and potentially even the price.
Join the conversation with Oskar Kaszubski, Todd Hassenfelt and Chris Perry in our latest episode of PROMPTEDβ’ Commerce AI News.

Here are 5 signals shaping where AI is heading next:
π₯οΈ AI Answers Are Becoming Interactive Shopping Experiences: ChatGPT now offers charts, forms, calculators and maps, helping shoppers compare products without visiting retailer websites.
π The next digital shelf may not look like a shelf. Brands must optimize for AI-powered discovery and evaluation.
π° AI-Powered Pricing Is Raising Questions About Fairness and Trust: McDonald's faces a lawsuit alleging AI menu pricing, which it denies. Maryland restricted dynamic grocery pricing, while Walmart pledged to price the product, not the person.
π Just because AI can personalize prices doesn't mean shoppers will accept it. Transparency and trust matter.
ποΈ Amazon's AI Is Taking Greater Control of Product Content: Amazon reportedly rewrote 984 million product titles, while sellers reported unexplained changes to product images.
π Brands must increasingly monitor not just what they publish, but what AI changes on their product pages.
π Google Is Bringing Multiple Retailers Into One Shopping Cart: Universal Cart connects Search, AI Mode and Gemini, combining products across retailers, tracking price drops and enabling Google Pay checkout.
π Retailer boundaries are blurring. Brands must compete for consideration and conversion across AI-managed shopping journeys.
π ChatGPT Is Bringing More of the Shopping Journey Into One Assistant: Virtual try-on, Favorites and visual ad tests are expanding ChatGPT's role in product discovery, consideration and conversion.
π AI assistants are becoming commerce platforms, reshaping brand visibility, retail media and shopper conversion.
