Lazy use of AI leads to Amazon products called “I cannot fulfill that request”

The telltale error messages are a sign of AI-generated pablum all over the Internet.

    @arstechnica@mastodon.social Oh great fun! And not just on Amazon I notice. Many webshops are already doing their product descriptions with AI it seems… AND not even looking at the results. #sigh 🥴

    As someone who sells through Amazon and relies on those earnings, this is really disheartening. Over the last 2 yrs it’s become so competitive due to their ‘sponsor’ manipulattion and now this … FFS.

    They have used auto-translation for years too, with hillarious results. It is obvious that no human is validating the output on non-US/EN Amazon sites.
