Artificial Intelligence and related technologies are progressing rapidly — the same with general data availability. Bots are becoming smarter and they will soon reach a point of <em>autonomous communication</em> with <em>other bots</em>.<strong> In an eCommerce context, a ‘Consumer Bot’ will be able to autonomously communicate with ‘Seller Bots’, and negotiate on your behalf for the right deal, based on your priorities and preferences. </strong>According to the referenced patent, negotiation is based on an optimization process within the decision space defined by consumer’s objectives and the explicitly set, or implicitly identified preferences.
