- The new code reveals that chatgpt can soon admit purchases in chat through Shopify
- The chat would offer prices, reviews and payment integrated through AI
- The function could give Shopify merchants access to chatgpt users while operating an electronic commerce platform
When he asks ChatgPT what is better for the execution of trails, he obtains a general description of the best examples and links to review products and product catalogs, however, Chatgpt could offer him to buy his choice between a variety of shopify merchants directly in the chat, according to the flooded code discovered by the test catalog.
Instead of clicking on different websites, Shopify would fill chatgpt with suggested products, complete with price, reviews, shipping details and, most importantly, a “buy now” button.
Click on it will not be sent to Chatgpt. You will simply buy those shoes through Chatgpt, which will be the store itself.
At least, that is what the discovered code bits describe. Shopify's direct integration into the Chatgpt interface would make an assistant to a retail employee and a review compiler. The fact that part of the code is really live, if it is hidden, suggests that the launch will arrive before what would be expected.
For the millions of Shopify merchants, this could be a great blessing. At this time, most small vendors have to hurry for traffic, invest in SEO, advertisements or pleading with mysterious social media algorithms so that they become viral. However, Chatgpt could make their products directly appear in front of the more than 800 million users of AI Chatbot.
And could lead to more real sales. After all, one thing is to stumble with a jacket on Instagram and follow a link to a site that requires that you find the jacket again and complete the payment details. It is much easier to buy something when you see that it appears in the middle of Chatgpt recommendations, with a purchase button there to click without any intermediate step.
Buy Chatgpt
Of course, Operai is not doing this in a vacuum. The idea that AI can guide not only to information, but through decision making and transactions, is known as 'authent trade' and is quickly becoming a large space for competition for AI developers.
Microsoft has its new Copilot merchants program, and Perplexity has its “buy with Pro” function to buy within its AI search engine, to name two others.
Regardless of any competition, this is a movement that could establish Openai for a new role in “doing” and not only “knowing. Until now, the chatgpt value was mainly brain: it helped you think, organize and investigate. But allowing you to buy things directly with the help of Shopify could give many people a new perspective about what the chatgpt is for.
Operai has already experienced with the operator agent to explore the web in his name. This only extends its power to transactions as well. Chatgpt will not only suggest things to do it; Will carry out those tasks for you.
It is not that purchases assisted by AI-AI finishes all websites to buy things, but the promise of purchases assisted by AI is that it can reduce noise, learn your preferences and serve products adapted to you. However, that will not save you from the repentance of the buyer; It simply takes you there faster.
