Sinch research shows retailers build consumer trust in AI by deploying it for targeted, low-risk tasks like order tracking and pre-purchase questions, with human backup for sensitive processes. Privacy remains a major consumer concern, and regional attitudes vary significantly, with US shoppers most sceptical and Brazilian shoppers most optimistic about AI in holiday shopping.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of E-commerce and Consumer Apps.
