AI shopping assistants set to become mainstream for UK consumers

80% of UK shoppers now use AI for online shopping, with most expecting AI assistants to be mainstream by 2026, revolutionising retail experiences.

So maybe someone with more patience than me can actually find the report they mention from Klaviyo

Because:

According to the Klaviyo AI Shopping Index, 80% of shoppers in the UK currently utilise AI tools either for shopping directly or for researching products online. The data suggests UK consumers are adopting these technologies at a faster rate than shoppers globally, where 65% expect AI assistants to be the norm by 2026, compared to 70% of UK respondents.

Because myself (who Is a big AI fan) and nearly everyone else I know must be in the 20% rate, I figure the data is slightly skewed or I'm going to say it is based on who they asked and the size of the audience pool.

It sounds a massive leap and if that was the case I don't understand why I don't see more of a quicker uptake with UK companies in the ecom sector unless myself and all the other stores are now just falling behind as well.

All for news and articles just I can't help feel this one feels really biased towards skewed data OR I'm just an old fart who isn't up with the times as I thought...

I use AI for shopping but I’m not in that 20% since in the US not the UK.

I'm not sure how much this is related to the OP, but it's very cool nonetheless and somewhat on topic.

That’s pretty cool you’re right. I’ll give it a go next time I’m shopping for something.

I have applied a while ago when it first came out, just to get a jump in some competitors (not all but most who I compete with I think ill be first) will see...

I get it's a thing I just don't believe 80% of the UK consults AI chat before buying
