OpenAI and Perplexity have rolled out AI shopping features in their chatbots to help users research purchases. OpenAI allows queries like “gaming laptop under $1000 with a 15-inch screen,” while Perplexity leverages chatbot memory to tailor recommendations to users’ preferences. Analysts predict AI-assisted holiday shopping could grow 520%, giving a boost to startups like Phia, Cherry, and Onton.
