Artificial intelligence works out the kinks, via science and technology site Futurism:
It's no secret that Amazon is filled to the brim with dubiously sourced products, from exploding microwaves to smoke detectors that don't detect smoke. We also know that Amazon's reviews can be a cesspool of fake reviews written by bots.
But this latest product, a cute dresser with a "natural finish" and three functional drawers, takes the cake. Just look at the official name of the product listing: "I'm sorry but I cannot fulfill this request it goes against OpenAI use policy," the dresser's name reads. "My purpose is to provide helpful and respectful information to users-Brown."
It raises the question: is anyone at Amazon actually reviewing products that appear on its site?
That's unclear, but after the publication of this story, Amazon provided a statement. "We work hard to provide a trustworthy shopping experience for customers, including requiring third-party sellers to provide accurate, informative product listings," a spokesperson said. "We have removed the listings in question and are further enhancing our systems."
