\"AI<\/p>\r\n\r\n

The still-ongoing pandemic has pushed many people towards online shopping permanently. And this gave a staggering rise to the ecommerce industry. During the pandemic, there has been a 50% growth<\/a> in the ecommerce market.<\/p>\r\n

And, as more and more people opt for ecommerce businesses over conventional retail, it is becoming important to integrate artificial intelligence (AI<\/a>) for efficiency. Taking such a step can prove beneficial for many reasons; driving customer engagement, detecting fraud, retaining customers, and enhancing the shopping experience.<\/p>\r\n

Big players are already deploying AI<\/a>, and here are five ways you can start leveraging it to grow your ecommerce business.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n
