Description

In this episode of Bot Boundaries, co‑hosts Jackie and Katie dive into the rise of agentic shopping and how AI is reshaping the future of e‑commerce for consumers and brands. They break down what Meta’s Hatch, Google, Shopify, and Amazon are building, what it means for brand data and customer relationships, and why privacy and trust are becoming bigger factors in AI‑powered shopping. They also touch on how these shifts affect retargeting, customer journeys, and the competitive landscape across major platforms. And to wrap it up, they have some fun in their “Love It or Leave It” segment, this time debating AI’s growing role in music.
