Happy Holidays from DT and hey, we still have New Years to go and it’s on a Saturday. So who’s really celebrating after this year’s holiday buying frenzy? Amazon, for one. USA Today says the online retail juggernaut shipped over a billion items for the holidays, and a whole bunch of them included their A.I. homebot Alexa, as all things Echo were hot sellers this year; in fact they were seven times more popular than last year.
Seems like A.I. homebots are starting to catch on, and Amazon is riding the wave to billions in revenue. Amazon also said 72 percent of shoppers bought from mobile devices, and December 19th was their busiest day. Also super popular this year? Oreo cookies.
