The driving force behind the alliance is a need for retailers to modernise and implement new technologies to deliver customers’ real-time recommendations, shopping assistance and customised offers. This combined offering also aims to unlock the business value of technologies such as generative AI.
Google Cloud vice-president of strategic industries Carrie Tharp explained: “Consumer expectations are changing more rapidly as generative AI evolves the nature of digital experiences.”
Google Cloud has recently worked with retailers such as Puma and Revieve on their online shopping operations.
