Abstract

AI is fuelling transformation across all domains of retail such as eCommerce, supply chain and in-store experience. At Walmart, AI technologies empower us to achieve our purpose – helping people save money so they can lead better lives. Across our physical stores and online eCommerce business, AI use-cases are increasingly being applied at scale. In this talk, we will illustrate how AI is a gamechanger for Walmart and also the future of retail. We plan to dive deep into a few use cases to talk about the end-to-end retail journey and its impact with AI.
