What happened

Shopify publishes that three out of four e- commerce business owners use AI tools, according to their Merchant Survey.

What changes

The AI becomes a cross-sectional capacity: product description, service, analysis, trading and automation.

Why it matters

When all have access to similar tools, the advantage goes from "have AI" to integrate with their own processes, data and criteria.

Implications for businesses

A trade can measure every use of AI against a concrete result: time saved, conversion rate, response, abandonment or repurchase.

One Rhino’s take

Adoption isn't strategy. The strategy starts with a decision as to what task it's worth automatingand what data will prove to have worked.
