Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN) said its launching an artificial
intelligence shopping feature on its app designed to pair customers
with outfits that match their preferences.
The feature, called StyleSnap, will let users upload a photo or
a screenshot of their outfit on the Amazon app and then suggest
similar options.
The e-commerce giant said at its technology and artificial
technology conference in Las Vegas that the app will use machine
learning techniques to identify the items in the uploaded
image.
Separately at the conference, the company said it will start
delivering packages to customers with drones in a matter of months.
The company said the drones can deliver items up to five pounds for
Prime customers and fly 15 miles.
