ABSTRACT: Amazon and Shopify are always trying to keep up with the latest technology and trends in the market and using AI to adapt to consumer behavior. Artificial intelligence (AI) is changing the world of online shopping by offering personalized buying experiences that significantly impact consumer dynamics. Their application, such as using chatbots and virtual assistants to improve client experience or applying predictive techniques to improve stock control and various other aspects that AI is promoting change in the online buying experience. Additionally, the two companies use AI alongside chatbots and virtual assistants to improve support for customers; these technologies help create interactions that are seamless and effective. The advantages of AI-driven personalization are obvious, but at the same time, issues such as data privacy, algorithmic biases, and over-reliance on automation have also been mentioned. AI improves dynamic pricing and inventory control through real-time price changes and stock level optimization but largely modifies personalization.

The review emphasizes the transformative role played by AI in e-commerce impacts on customer behavior and its role in providing a competitive edge within an increasingly dynamic digital ecosystem.
