About us
As AI moves from advisory agents to execute agents the rise of transactional bots represents a massive opportunity.
It's expected that 2027 will be the year that your personal shopping bot will use your money to buy things for you.
Banks are currently writing new policies to handle disputes, scams and payment methods. Brands expecting less visits to their website and are instead building their bot centric experiences.
How are you preparing for 2027?
Well this meetup is help facilitate exactly that conversation. Really there's 2 goals, share what your doing with AI and ecommerce and get ahead of a massive incoming trend.
Your host Eric is a software developer and has worked in Sydney Ecommerce for many years, launched a global startup and is looking to connect with people who want to build something big.
