As <b>artificial intelligence plays an increasingly prominent role in consumers\u2019 daily lives<\/b> (including in the luxury sector), the consulting firm Bain &amp; Company and the Comit\u00e9 Colbert published their study <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bain.com\/fr\/insights\/winning-over-the-customer-in-the-age-of-ai-a-new-horizon-for-luxury\/\">\u201cLuxury &amp; Technology\u201d<\/a> on the impact of AI on customer relationships and new purchasing journeys.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>After analyzing responses <b>from some twenty luxury houses<\/b> across all luxury sectors (fashion, beauty, jewelry, etc.), the consulting firm and the association revealed that almost<b>\u00a0a quarter of brands (22%) have included artificial intelligence<\/b> among their top three priorities for the next three years, <b>compared to just 5% in 2024<\/b>. At the same time, 61% of respondents consider this technology to be among their top 10 priorities.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>However, the results are nuanced when company size and whether the company is part of a larger group are taken into account. While large groups with multiple brands have already finalized plans for integrating artificial intelligence, smaller companies are still in the planning stages.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, <b>artificial intelligence currently applies mainly to operational tasks such as administrative services (74%)<\/b>, IT (41%), and supply chain, procurement, and manufacturing (33%). In contrast, the use of this technology for direct customer contact remains relatively limited. According to the study\u2019s figures, only 21% of respondents reported having deployed AI in this area, and 45% are still in the experimental phase.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>China and the United States Are Big on AI<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A gap between brands and their target audience. While companies remain hesitant to connect AI tools with their customers, consumers are widely using this technology to make purchases. According to <b>Bain &amp; Company and the Comit\u00e9 Colbert<\/b>, the majority of luxury shoppers (82%) have already used this technology for their most recent purchase.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The figures also highlight <b>the particular appeal of this shopping experience among Chinese and American consumers<\/b>: 64% and 54%, respectively, reported using artificial intelligence to purchase a luxury item. This comes as no surprise, given that the United States and China are locked in a race in this field: the former plans to invest nearly $700 billion in artificial intelligence by 2026, while the latter has allocated $295 billion over five years.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In general, luxury consumers have used artificial intelligence to <b>learn about products (64%) and compare them<\/b>. Others also seek advice and inspiration (60%).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>GEO is the new SEO<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The challenge for brands is therefore to <b>compete effectively for visibility in generative AI search engines<\/b>, especially since 97% of luxury consumers who use this tool plan to use it for future purchases, as they consider it faster and more impartial in their decision-making.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Just as SEO (Search Engine Optimization) makes content and websites visible on search engines, <b>GEO (Generative Engine Optimization)<\/b> enables brands to appear in AI-generated responses. According to Bain &amp; Company and the Comit\u00e9 Colbert, approximately 70% of luxury-related searches do not mention any specific brand, and the content generated by these generative search engines often draws on information from third-party sites rather than the brands\u2019 official websites.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>To anticipate these changes and remain competitive in the market, experts recommend that luxury houses establish robust governance frameworks for this technology, strengthen their data analytics capabilities, <b>implement measures to enhance the customer journey with AI<\/b> (such as conversational assistants or digital personalization), and stay informed about developments in this technology.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Read more &gt; <a href=\"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/luxury-brands-on-the-hunt-for-us-ai-leaders\/\">Luxury brands on the hunt for U.S. AI leaders<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Featured picture: @ UNSPLASH<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the fifth edition of their \u201cLuxury &amp; Technology\u201d study, the consulting firm Bain &amp; Company and the Comit\u00e9 Colbert demonstrated the importance of artificial intelligence in the relationship between luxury brands and their customers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2393,"featured_media":199836,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_seopress_titles_title":"How is AI reshaping the luxury experience?","_seopress_titles_desc":"In a study, Bain & Company and the Comit\u00e9 Colbert demonstrated the importance of AI in the relationship between luxury brands and their customers.","_seopress_robots_index":"","_seopress_robots_follow":"","_seopress_robots_imageindex":"","_seopress_robots_snippet":"","_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_robots_breadcrumbs":"","_seopress_robots_freeze_modified_date":"","_seopress_robots_custom_modified_date":"","_seopress_robots_canonical":"","_seopress_social_fb_title":"","_seopress_social_fb_desc":"","_seopress_social_fb_img":"","_seopress_social_fb_img_attachment_id":0,"_seopress_social_fb_img_width":0,"_seopress_social_fb_img_height":0,"_seopress_social_twitter_title":"","_seopress_social_twitter_desc":"","_seopress_social_twitter_img":"","_seopress_social_twitter_img_attachment_id":0,"_seopress_social_twitter_img_width":0,"_seopress_social_twitter_img_height":0,"_seopress_redirections_value":"","_seopress_redirections_enabled":"","_seopress_redirections_enabled_regex":"","_seopress_redirections_logged_status":"","_seopress_redirections_param":"","_seopress_redirections_type":0,"_seopress_analysis_target_kw":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1964,5874],"tags":[23200,22394,24030,26033,22934,23202,23157],"class_list":["post-199839","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-brand-strategy","category-innovation-en","tag-comite-colbert-en","tag-focus-en","tag-international-en","tag-luxe","tag-luxury","tag-nouvelles-technologies-en","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/199839","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2393"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=199839"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/199839\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":199857,"href":"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/199839\/revisions\/199857"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/199836"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=199839"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=199839"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/luxus-plus.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=199839"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
