Did you know New Product Listings On Amazon Causes A Stir Due To Bizarre AI-Generated Names Like ‘I Cannot Fulfill This Request It Goes Against OpenAI's Policy’
Amazon is one place where one can buy it all. But it would not be wrong
to mention that there are plenty of doubtfully sourced products
available online too on the platform.
At the same time, so many
products are being promoted with a long list of fake reviews that were
curated through the help of bots.
Now, we’re getting more news on a new product that is up for grabs but
it’s causing a huge stir online, thanks to the official name seen in the
product listing.
It’s called, ‘I’m sorry but I can’t fulfill this request it goes against the OpenAI use policy’. For those wondering, it’s just a little dresser featuring a cut little draw in the color green.
Those
who happen to be in the industry related to naming furniture are well
aware of how the name is the main selling point. And from what we’ve
seen, the picture goes a long way. Here is an image featuring a product
with two drawers but in reality, the image has three.

The
funny product listing claims firms are having trouble using ChatGPT to
come up with big product descriptions as it features names that do not
make sense and have not been proofread either. It’s probably like that
to try and ensure they’re optimized for the likes of a search engine
just so they can be discovered easily.
This raises another
question. Is there anyone actually taking a look at how products are
being reviewed how they are being displayed is a question on its own. As
one would expect, publishing this story has given rise to the company
actually releasing a statement on this front and we feel it was much
needed because of the hype that has resulted.

those sellers need to stop being lazy and spamming amazon with ai-generated product names that violate openai and amazon policies, especially regarding trademarked brand names. it's not fair to other sellers and customers who have to sift through the mess. https://t.co/GjxtVvmCMK

Amazon tried to reassure its users and fans that they work round the
clock to make sure all users have the most trustworthy shopping
experience out there today. This includes making sure third parties
involved in the sale of products are giving the right type of
information. They have opted to remove any questionable listings to
ensure their system is up to date at all times.
As we’ve already
seen, OpenAI’s super popular chatbot is already flooding the internet
and that has resulted in havoc across the board. Data keeps getting
regurgitated regarding requests that go against the company’s policy.
This has led to a wide range of products having listings with a similar name or something close to it.
Plenty of others have an apology attached on how the trademarked names
go against the OpenAI policy like hoses made from polyurethane material.
There’s another post featuring a chair that has a reclining
function from the brand Khalery. Its description is vague and has to do
with how the product can be used for a series of tasks but it never
specified which ones. Again, it’s called for a lot of scrutiny in terms
of how products are being listed and described and if the reviews are
genuine or simply present to drive sales.
We can see how and why
people are going nuts but some are really finding this funny. We might
be on the fence in terms of where we stand but it’s alarming for those
who actually buy products based on reviews, listings, and descriptions,
not to mention authentic pictures. Therefore, we can see where all the
commotion is coming from.
