Black Friday isn't what it once was. Less than 15 years ago, it was common for people to wake up at early hours to drive to a store, where they would stand in line, waiting for the doors to open in order to get the best deals.
Those people stay, but not in the numbers they used to, thanks to online shopping. But as AI becomes fixed in people's habits, it could have an increasingly large role in Black Friday.
A growing number of buyers will be depending on AI to help them find deals. Some 33% of the people in a 2025 survey said they plan to use AI as part of their holiday shopping double the number who did last year. Many say the tech could help them with gift ideas and product discovery. A separate study from another marketing platform(平台) found that 56% of buyers say they'll use AI tools among Black Friday.
AI can do a lot more than help people think of creative gifts, of course. GenAI can research prices and recommend the best deal, in some cases even buying the products for you. And a growing number of people are taking advantage of that. Traffic from AI platforms to retail(零售) sites in July was up by 4,700%, according to Adobe Analytics. And the company says there will be an increase in AI usage of between 515% and 550% this holiday season, compared to 2024.
To use AI for finding deals, first make a clear list or what you want to buy. Be very specific about the product details when asking the chatbot. For example, if you want a computer, mention the exact model and your preferences. The AI will then search for the best prices and may also suggest cash-back apps. However, always check the results on the store's website yourself, as prices can change quickly. This method saves you time and makes holiday shopping easier.

1. B 解析:细节理解题。根据第一、二段的内容"黑色星期五已今非昔比。不到15年前,人们常常会在清晨就起床,驱车前往商店,然后排队等候商店开门,以便能买到最优惠的商品","那些人还是会购物,但数量已不如从前。这要归功于网络购物。但随着AI逐渐融入人们的购物习惯中,它在'黑色星期五'期间的作用可能会愈发重要"可知,前两段告诉我们黑色星期五的购物方式受到互联网尤其是AI发展的影响。故选B。
2. A 解析:推理判断题。根据第三段中"Some 33% of the people... among Black Friday.(在2025年的一项调查中,33%的人表示他们计划将人工智能作为节日购物的一部分,这一比例是去年的两倍。许多人表示,这项技术可以帮助他们找到礼物灵感和发现产品信息。另一家营销平台的一项独立研究发现,56%的购物者会在黑色星期五使用人工智能工具"可推知,作者描述在购物过程中使用AI这一日益流行的趋势时使用了列数字的方法。故选A。
