Mobile phones are the go-to devices for AI tasks on the move, and bringing AI agents to work across the handheld device makes a lot of sense.
Apple has been looking to enter the region with its AI suite and that is expected to happen soon with the help of Alibaba. The company’s own AI push has been slow and it has even lost an AI veteran as it looks to recharge Siri with AI and launch in 2026 for all the users.
ChatGPT is now getting smarter with shopping tips and the new Shopping Research feature in the AI chatbot is trying to replace Google as the go-to assistant for these tasks.

Shopping is a big part of the market during this time of the year, and OpenAI is looking to tap into the heavy demand for people looking to buy products conveniently. ChatGPT clearly aspires to be your AI shopping assistant with this tool which is available for free users as well as the ChatGPT Go, Plus and even the Pro subscribers.
