According to a report from Rosenblatt, AI shopping agents are not expected to disrupt Amazon's advertising model. This prediction suggests that despite the rise of artificial intelligence in shopping, Amazon's current ad revenue structure will remain intact.

This news matters for social commerce because it indicates that traditional e-commerce platforms like Amazon will continue to dominate the online shopping landscape, even as new technologies emerge. The persistence of Amazon's ad model also underscores the importance of understanding consumer behavior and preferences in the context of social commerce.
