So, let’s discuss what all benefits does AI has for the web development sector.

Voice Search: Influenced by fast Internet browsing, users are eager to receive requested information instantly. Voice search, which has already grabbed everyone’s attention in recent time is surely going to rule the tech-world very soon. So, integrating voice-activated search functionality can be quite beneficial for the e-commerce industry.
Virtual shopping assistants can be a great thing for customers to make shopping a fast, convenient, and hassle-free experience. The virtual assistants will record and analyze the customer’s past shopping history and assist recommendations and respond to the customer accordingly. So, this trend is going to be a buzzword for web development industry owners very soon.
Automation: Artificial intelligence strategies directly save the developers time they spend on tiring and hectic tasks. From website development, design, testing, search engine results to content management, AI has automated each and every stage of the website development lifecycle.

Take an example of the healthcare industry, and people raise their query to the bot about some vaccines or anything, bots respond to them in no time.
Moreover, chatbot not only tackles the customer queries, but it is also even fed with data that can understand the customer’s unique query and give a solution-like a patient mentions certain symptoms about an ailment, so in this case, the bot will analyze the symptoms and give a quick and accurate answer to it. So, the healthcare industry can integrate their existing websites with Chatbots to offer a better user experience on time.
User Experience: As we discussed in the earlier section about Amazon and Netflix, you would have got a clear idea that how AI understands the customer’s behavior based on their past purchases and history. As AI analyzes the customer’s preferences, interest area, and other fields, it directly offers suggestions that resemble the user’s requirements; instead of showing up random stuff to the customers. So, AI-enabled websites will deliver a rich user experience by- displaying personalized ads, personalized product recommendations, and displaying tailored audio and video content.
