The survey, covering over 10,000 participants across 13 countries, confirms that AI is no longer seen as futuristic but as an expected part of customer experience. 66% of Gen Z and 65% of Millennials expect hyper-personalised recommendations driven by generative AI — tailored not only to past purchases, but also to mood, location, and seasonal trends. In Poland, Focus on Business reports that 7 in 10 consumers already use AI tools in everyday life — often unknowingly, through smart filters in shopping apps or marketplace recommendation engines. Business takeaway: AI integration is no longer a competitive edge; it’s the market baseline. Retailers that don’t implement intelligent search, recommendations, and customer support risk losing their most valuable segments, especially younger generations. 70% of shoppers expect smart, personalised features The DHL “E-commerce Trends 2025” report reveals that 70% of consumers expect online stores to offer AI-driven shopping features such as visual search, contextual recommendations, personalised offers, or voice commerce. This expectation spans all age groups: even the 45+ demographic increasingly uses AI when tools are simple and deliver clear value, like finding product equivalents via image search or instantly comparing offers across retailers. KPMG data shows 61% of consumers see personalised shopping experiences as a key purchase driver. Business takeaway: AI-powered features are no longer a “premium add-on” but a core requirement for modern e-commerce. Deploying visual search, voice commerce, and dynamic recommendations must be a strategic priority to remain competitive and increase customer loyalty. AI boosts engagement, but conversion needs work Adobe’s 2025 e-commerce trends report shows that AI shopping tools directly impact user behaviour. Retailers that adopted generative AI recorded: +8% longer average session duration +12% more pages viewed –23% lower bounce rate AI clearly drives engagement and exploration. However, conversion rates remain below e-commerce averages. Many shoppers treat AI as a source of inspiration and make purchases later, sometimes in different channels. 46% of surveyed consumers trust AI more than friends when choosing fashion items. Business takeaway: AI drives engagement but must be paired with conversion strategies. Seamless omnichannel journeys, limited-time offers, and strong CTAs are essential to monetise AI-driven interactions. Consumers are already using AI and want more A US study found that 39% of consumers have already used generative AI tools in shopping, from chatbots and recommendation engines to visual search. Another 53% plan to use them this year. In Poland, 70% of consumers already interact with AI in daily life, through marketplace algorithms, dynamic pricing engines, or smart product filtering. Business takeaway: customers are not waiting for AI to “arrive” in e-commerce, they’re already using it. Not offering AI tools means losing share to competitors that deliver smarter, more interactive shopping experiences. AI as a trusted shopping advisor Consumer trust in AI has grown significantly. In categories like fashion, beauty, and electronics, AI is increasingly the “first consultant”, filtering, suggesting, and guiding purchases. Business takeaway: growing trust in AI allows brands to strengthen loyalty through transparency. Explaining why a product is recommended (“because it matches your style and recent searches”) builds credibility. Transparent AI will become a cornerstone of brand–customer relationships. Start with AI where it matters most: delivery You don’t need costly or complex integrations to bring AI into your store. Start with the foundation of a great shopping experience: fast, reliable, predictable delivery. AI-driven shipment automation shortens fulfillment times, increases customer satisfaction, and drives loyalty.
