It might be because you may not understand how to use different psychology principles to design your products to elicit specific responses and actions from your users. Your customers are driven by emotions when they are looking at a website, wondering if they should buy a product or not. They are instinctively trying to establish a connection with the brand and, depending on what they see, they will either complete the purchase or not.

One of the key drivers of the AI (Artificial Intelligence) revolution is open source software. With languages like Python and platforms such as TensorFlow, anybody can create sophisticated models.
Yet this does not mean the applications will be useful. They may wind up doing more harm than good, as we’ve seen with cases involving bias.

But more and more, it’s non-technical people that are using the technology to achieve tangible business objectives.
