DoorDash reports agentic AI order volume remains negligible despite broader AI gains in Q2
DoorDash CEO Tony Xu noted in earnings that orders placed by AI agents (e.g., ChatGPT plugins) remain minimal, even as broader AI optimisations drove Q2 growth. Suggests autonomous agent adoption in commerce slower than hype cycle predicts.
WHY IT MATTERS
Reality check: agentic commerce is still marginal in adoption. For BFSI, implies enterprise autonomous workflows (e.g., agent-driven trading, claim processing) may face similar lag between pilot and production scale.
