Lowe's CEO Marvin Ellison is all in on AI
"We're very focused on employing AI to help our associates sell, to improve the shopping environment for our customers, both in-store and online, and creating productivity in the workspace. It helps our associates do the most difficult part of transition to a home improvement world, and that is product knowledge."
"Not only does this platform and this assistant allow that to happen, it also now can do it in Spanish. That's led to dramatic improvements in customer service, including helping break the language gap in some geographic areas and a two percentage-point lift in in-store satisfaction scores."
"Online, Lowe's is seeing conversion rates double when customers use Mylow's AI shopping assistant, which rolled out in March 2025."
