Interview with ChatGPT. How artificial intelligence sees the e-commerce sector

Chat GPT is a chat system developed on the basis of the GPT-3 artificial intelligence language model developed by OpenAI. This model uses more than 175 million parameters and has been trained on a large amount of text to perform various tasks.

Nexus experts wondered how Chat GPT sees the e-commerce niche, so we wanted to interview him.

Nexus: How important is the online sales channel for companies?

GPT Chat: In recent years, the online sales channel has become increasingly important for companies. With the development of digital technology, more and more consumers are shopping online, making e-commerce a key way for companies to connect with their customers and sell them products

Nexus: What month does e-commerce generate the most sales?

Chat GPT: Usually, when we talk about the months with the highest sales volume in e-commerce, we should mention November and December. These two months include Christmas and New Year, which stimulate an increased demand for online shopping.

However, it should be noted that these trends may vary by country and region. For example, in the US and other countries where Black Friday and Cyber Monday are popular events, November and December may be the most profitable months. In other regions, or for industries that are seasonally driven, such as tourism or fashion, other months may have higher sales.

It is important to remember that e-commerce is dynamic and can change over time, so it is recommended that a specific company and industry conduct its own data analysis and study consumer trends to determine which months are the most profitable.

Nexus: What is the most important trading platform in the world?

Chat GPT: There are several large and important marketplaces in the world, and the choice of the “most important” may depend on various factors, such as geographic area, industry, type of goods and services, and other variables. However, there are a few well-known and widely used platforms that can be identified:

1. Amazon (also provides cloud computing, video streaming, e-books and other services);
2. Alibaba Group, which is the largest trading platform in China and one of the largest in the world;
3. eBay (specialises in auctions and sales of various goods);
4. Shopify is one of the leading platforms for creating online stores;
5. JD.com (formerly known as Jingdong).

Nexus: What is the biggest challenge for e-commerce in 2023?

GPT Chat: I can think of several potential issues that could affect e-commerce in the near future:

Cybersecurity: With the growth of e-commerce comes new cybersecurity threats, such as: cyber-attacks, phishing, fraud and data breaches. Businesses and consumers need to be more vigilant and take steps to protect their information and transactions.

Regulation and legislation: Increasing attention is being paid to the legal regulation of e-commerce. The introduction of new rules and laws may affect business models, data processing, consumer protection and other aspects of e-commerce. Companies should keep abreast of changes in legislation and align their operations with them.

Competition and market saturation: The e-commerce market is becoming increasingly competitive, and companies must struggle to attract and retain customers. Market saturation and increased consumer expectations may mean that companies must constantly innovate, offer better service and adapt to changing market demands.

Nexus: How will GPT Chat impact e-commerce and digital business?

Chat GPT: Chat GPT can be used to automate customer service in online stores and e-commerce platforms. It can answer customer questions, provide information about products and services, help with order processing, and resolve issues that arise. This allows companies to improve the efficiency and accessibility of customer service.

Personalisation and recommendations: Chat GPT can analyse data about customer preferences and behaviour to offer personalised recommendations and advertising. It can help businesses create more accurate and relevant offers for each customer, enhancing their shopping experience.

Marketing and advertising: Chat GPT can be used to create content, write advertising copy, create product descriptions and other textual materials. It can help companies generate original and compelling content that can increase the effectiveness of marketing efforts to attract customers.

Analytics and forecasting: Chat GPT can analyse large amounts of data, including sales, customer, market, and other factors, to help companies forecast demand, optimise inventory, develop pricing strategies, and make other business decisions.

Chat GPT can also be used to create and develop new digital services and products. For example, to create virtual assistants, chatbots, or voice assistants that help customers make purchases, receive information, and perform other tasks.
