Technology Report 2024 In 2024, the technology sector moved firmly into the AI phase of computing. Cloud service providers, enterprises, and technology vendors are spending more on AI than ever, and adoption rates are high. But skeptics are wary of AI’s return on investment. What explains the dissonance? Our work with clients suggests that AI, more than other technology disruptions, generates little value from deployment alone. Creating value with AI requires changes in the working processes of hundreds or thousands of employees. Companies need to conduct business diagnostics, redesign processes, set targets, and manage change as they deploy this technology. But early proof points from our client work are encouraging, showing that generative AI initiatives could be worth up to 20% of EBITDA. This year’s Bain Technology Report examines AI’s sweeping impact on industry structure, enterprise value, data centers, geopolitical trading blocs, software, services, business opportunities, and resource and talent.

Generative AI’s Potential to Improve Customer Experience At a Glance Retail customers are optimistic about generative AI: Bain’s research finds that about half of those surveyed see great potential in these new tools. Customers value passive generative AI features such as summarizing reviews integrated into their journeys—sometimes even more than they value standalone generative AI features. Online shoppers understand the potential for personalization with generative AI, and they seem more willing to share personal data than they might in other contexts. In retail, generative AI can help deliver great customer service more efficiently, especially in parts of the journey that have proven more difficult to reach. In retail, as in other industries, generative AI promises to change the customer experience. Retailers are deploying AI-enhanced tools such as summaries of product reviews, chatbots, and shopping assistants in an effort to facilitate purchase decisions, reduce friction, and increase conversion. While businesses are experimenting and assessing the impact of generative AI tools in the shopping journey, customers are still getting used to the new interactions and features impacting their online shopping experience—and as with everything about generative AI, we are finding their perceptions to be both the same as and different from what we’ve known in the past. To help retailers think about deploying generative AI in a customer-centric way, Bain surveyed more than 700 online shoppers in the United States about their knowledge of and experience with generative AI. Awareness of these tools is low among customers: 71% said they were not aware of having used generative AI in their online shopping even though most had shopped recently with retailers where they were likely to have encountered them. But despite low awareness, customers are optimistic about the impact of generative AI, with roughly half seeing significant or transformative potential. In addition to the survey, we interviewed online shoppers and compared traditional and new shopping experiences with different types of generative AI, taking into consideration customers’ expectations about personalization. We then mapped their perceptions over the entire purchasing journey—from awareness to purchase and beyond. This research has allowed us to define five design principles that cumulatively suggest that the most effective early use cases for generative AI may lie in designing experiences that enhance and expand the current retail journey rather than serving as a standalone platform for engagement. 1/4 BACK TO INSIGHTS
