What would be the effect of an AI on the sales industry in the future?

Fairly broad question, it would be helpful to provide more contextโฆ
But hereโs my take : AI will never fully replace sales because people donโt only buy a product, but a relationship to it. If youโre lucky, you have such a strong brand that you donโt need to rely too heavily on sales, otherwise sales people will the the embodiment of that relationship.
Or as others say, people buy from peopleโฆ
That being said, AI can help on targeting and decision making :
- better prospect qualification with stronger intent understanding
- faster database building with AI analysis of companies
- better/faster cold email copy creation (with more emphasis on personalization) via AI generated insights
NB: Iโll exclude automation rule based as this is not AI driven

there will always be sales people no matter what happens with AI.
It could help with the front end prospecting side of things. Identifying prospective accounts or individuals, or even help create emails.
but beyond that, idk how much it will replace

No one really knows ๐คทโโ๏ธ
your right. i do love to hear the people say that it will replace 100% of sales people.....cus thats just insane.
Well, the AI wonโt sell itselfโฆ
Sir allow me to buy you a drink.
AI can make sense, sure, but I don't think within the sales process. Maybe in research process.
None.
It might ease some processes but the human touch will always be there.
I can see AI replacing a lot of prospecting and more transactional sales. If the sale is a race to the bottom in price AI can replace
