Powerful Ways To Use Artificial Intelligence In E-Commerce

If technology fascinates you, let me share a true story with you.

My sister’s neighbor who lives in the US has named her son Digital (pet name).

Surprised? So was I.

Just like why this unique name” was bothering me, I delved more, and found this awe-inspiring theory!

Digital is a smart, intelligent boy with high intelligence and analytics abilities that makes him stand apart from his peer group. He can solve problems and offer suggestions and has high intuitive power that most of his predictions come true.

Moreover, the best part is the recommendation capabilities that his mother(and even my sister and people around him) follows, while making major decisions like buying or selling goods (she’s an entrepreneur in the e-commerce sector).

Could you trace AI in the story? Well, that’s the inference.
