Businesses are now tracking their operations to support corporate plans, deliver better results, and communicate with customers online. A growing number of smart devices and internet users, rising awareness of AI and big data and analytics, and government initiatives toward digitalization are fueling the expansion of global artificial intelligence in the retail market.”  Active Tech Companies in today’s markets include:  VSBLTY Groupe Technologies Corp.

Mordor Intelligence continued: “Digital transformation in retail is about more than just connecting things. It involves turning data into insights that guide decisions and lead to improved business results. AI largely produces these insights in retail, specifically machine learning and deep learning. For retailers, this results in fantastic customer experiences, chances to increase revenue, rapid innovation, and intelligent operations-all of which help set you apart from your rivals.  The most commonly used AI technologies are machine learning and deep learning. Organizations in the retail industry use machine learning and deep learning technology to offer a more personalized experience to end-users and provide an interactive environment for them. Brick-and-mortar stores are embracing computer vision, a subset of deep learning in artificial intelligence used in retail. Computer vision “sees” and decodes visual information, giving your eyes in the right places. New retail use cases in customer experience, demand forecasting, inventory management, and other areas are becoming possible.”
