Did you know there's a bit of artificial intelligence (AI) magic behind the scenes helping to make your holiday dreams come true? Santa's little helpers have gone high-tech this year. From finding the perfect gift to AI-enabled toys and even composing a holiday song--that truthfully will take a bit more refinement before it becomes a holiday classic--AI has infiltrated our holidays from start to finish. Those of you who are adept behind the keyboard might be surprised that this hasn't been true for years, but the scales have tipped in favor of online shopping with 51% of the Deloitte 2017 Holiday Retail Survey respondents saying they would be making the bulk of their purchases online this holiday season. In the past, shoppers would research and compare prices online, but the majority still went to stores to make their purchases.
