How AI improve the retail ux?
It is no longer news that artificial intelligence has greatly changed how people go about their day to day affairs, it is changing many industries and the retail industry is not left out .
Artificial intelligence in retail entails the use of data, automation and technologies like machine learning algorithms to achieve customized shopping experiences to consumers e.g a virtual assistant gives shoppers a personalized recommendation on pricing based on their purchase history etc.
UX (User experience) refers to an individual's experience with a product, service, etc.
The main objective of UX is to analyze the responses made by users to the use of a product to improve its ergonomics, facilitate its use, make it more intuitive, and as efficient as possible. It is about making a product, through its design, its architecture, its interactivity, etc., as pleasant as possible for a user to use.
AI and machine learning are usually used interchangeably by people but they are two different concepts. Machine learning is a part of artificial intelligence that enables computers to make predictions using historical data without being programmed while AI is a branch of computer science that deals with making computer systems that can mimic human intelligence, they use algorithms that can work with their own intelligence.
