This cannot possibly hold up in court. You cant just advertise a product and then be like “*but actually we might be lying about some or all of these things”??? What the fuck are you selling then

    Was just arguing about the usefulness of AI as a tool with someone on here, and he said that AI consistently making mistakes is a great way to improve critical thinking skills, because it challenges you to figure it out on your own after AI fails.

    So what I’m saying is, that was an absolute rubbish take, and shit like this is going to be the downfall of the internet. The internet was such a wonderful, useful tool, and now look at how they massacred my boy 😞

    Truth in advertising was killed off in the 80’s… They can basically say whatever they want now and little ever gets done.

    I really thought the way this would shake out is what the end user would own all the assistant chatter and the mistakes it made and businesses would generate easily machine parsable shit for YOUR assistant to parse to make it easy for your agent to both inform you and lessen the friction for the actual sale eg lenovo hp dell etc would provide machine parseible specs and you would conversationally find an item and end up with it in a cart but the last step would be human crafted UI where you would agree to buy exactly what it was you were buying and you were responsible for reading it because THAT not your prior chat with YOUR agent was what they were responsible for.

    I do not get it, how much effort would a product description possibly be to instead use ai? This is not a one off, even before these llm ai systems a lot of instruction manuals in cheap crap you buy were written by machines, very badly.

    They are presumably paying people to be executives and board members and managers, but they can’t be bothered to pay someone a few hours to write a product description accurately? We have all the wrong people in charge in this country. Because they can not even write an accurate product description they chose to.

      Probably 15-30 minutes vs a couple seconds. (I know, it would bankrupt anyone)

      Weird thing is that every produce has a spec sheet you could literally save money by having an AI crank out text and spent 5c per item to make sure it actually matches the spec sheet.

    🤔 what do they think “strive” means?
