CNBC reports on what is seen as a burgeoning generative AI battle in which Walmart is seen as engaging with Google. Here’s how it frames the story:
“Walmart is talking up its ability to use generative AI as a one-stop shop to search when you need to plan an event, rather than online destination to search for individual items. During a call with analysts after its February earnings, Walmart CEO Doug McMillon talked about the gen AI search capabilities in its app.
“‘The thing we’re most excited about that’s already happened is the way search has improved, and the way generative AI helped us really improve a solution-oriented search experience for customers and members,’ McMillon said on the earnings call. ‘And it happened pretty quickly.’
It also adds to the questions about future use of a search engine like Google.
Walmart long ago established itself as a major tech player, successfully fending off years of anxiety over Amazon and remaining a leader in the retail space whose shares are now trading at an all-time high.”
