Shipt, owned by Target, has introduced 'Ask Shipt', an AI shopping assistant designed to turn user prompts into customized, ready-to-buy shopping carts. The tool allows users to create lists based on specific events, such as a tailgate party for 25 people or school lunches and snacks.
Users can also upload photos of dishes from restaurants or the internet to have the assistant identify and add all necessary ingredients to their cart. The tool also supports budget-based requests, such as planning a weeknight meal for a family of five for under $35.
The launch of Ask Shipt follows other AI integrations on Target.com, which include AI-powered photo search, customer review summaries, и personalized shopping experiences.
