According to a survey by the National Retail Federation, 46% of online shoppers are simply browsing for inspiration. In the next three years, we will expand Amazon from a place that primarily serves customers on a buying mission, to a place customers enjoy turning to for shopping advice and inspiration. We envision that the advances in large language models will fundamentally change the way we shop online. We will create experiences that are attractive to diverse customers, by dynamically serving content based on customers’ interests and preferences. We invite you to join us on this journey of transformation.
