Walmart unveiled tools that let artificial intelligence agents shop on behalf of its customers. The retailer will launch "Agent Profiles" next month, allowing each customer to register every AI assistant as a separate profile within their account, so purchases made by the agent appear separately. Customers can require authorization for each purchase or set a spending limit, such as 50, 100 or 200 dollars, and delete the profile at any time. Amazon, by contrast, blocks third-party shopping agents.
