“By combining human-language input with a brand’s design library, customer reviews, and branded content, generative AI greatly reduces the time creative and marketing teams spend developing product copy and advertisements,” said Deborah Weinswig, CEO and founder, Coresight Research. “This report created in partnership with Digital Wave Technology highlights the latest developments in generative AI, as well as best practices for successfully implementing the technology to help brands and retailers make the most of this quick-moving target.”
The report also showcases the implications of generative AI that will be integral for brands and retailers in the coming years, most notably security.
“Today, many businesses are using open large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT or OpenAI for their generative AI needs, putting their confidential brand information at risk,” said Lori Schafer, CEO, Digital Wave Technology. “As an alternative, Digital Wave Technology offers a platform that is LLM agnostic and ‘daisy-chains’ best-in-class private and/or public LLMs together to optimize pivotal data science techniques. This strategy empowers brands and retailers to achieve key business results while maintaining safe AI ethics and ensuring confidential brand information is secure.”
In addition to enhanced security, the report details other key benefits of partnering with generative AI vendors, including:
- Creating a Competitive Advantage – By using generative AI to accelerate product development and product launches, brands and retailers can quickly respond to customer inquiries and market trends.
- Improving Profitability With Fewer Resources – Generative AI offers important cost-saving benefits and efficiencies that empower brands and retailers to pursue new revenue opportunities. Furthermore, it can significantly improve conversions and top line sales.
- Continuing Innovation at Scale – In time, generative AI will go far beyond drafting text and images from prompts. Retailers and brands must invest in solution providers who will continuously innovate their technologies and stay ahead of the curve.
