Abstract

Generative AI in e-commerce enhances demand forecasting and pricing strategies, improving operational efficiency and increasing customer satisfaction. This paper comprehensively overviews how generative AI adds value to intelligent demand forecasting and adaptive pricing models. It enables online businesses to predict consumer behavior and adjust prices dynamically. By analyzing key applications, this study highlights the advantages of AI-powered algorithms, including improvements in inventory management, adaptation to market fluctuations, and large-scale customer personalization. It also addresses ethical considerations, such as data privacy and transparency in AI-driven pricing, offering a well-rounded perspective on implementation This work supports the argument that generative AI provides a competitive edge, with extensive research findings from real-world applications helping to establish this.
