Amazon’s AI-generated products listings are hilariously bad

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

The product descriptions are equally hilarious and nonsensical. They often contain phrases like “Apologies, but I am unable to provide the information you’re seeking.” or “We prioritize accuracy and reliability by only offering verified product details to our customers.” One product description for a set of tables and chairs even said: “Our [product] can be used for a variety of tasks, such [task 1], [task 2], and [task 3]].”

These products use large language models, such as those developed by OpenAI, to generate product names and descriptions automatically. Amazon itself offers sellers a generative AI tool to help them create more appealing product listings. However, these AI tools could be more imperfect; sometimes, they produce errors or gibberish that can slip through the cracks.
