I have been using Amazon as a shopping search engine for a while now, don’t actually buy it though. This is a new and extremely valuable search feature. Clearly I want a foot on a chair. Good job ai, good job

    Sad part, they already had a legitimate usecase for AI. They could just let you describe a product in your own words and let AI find the best fits within their store. But no. They had to go for that.

      IMO, the best case is policing the store.

      It’s unorganized, and many listings are junky. They need crawlers (double checked by staff) tagging, categorizing, checking specifications, checking duplicate listings, checking for scams and such.

      That’s what oldschool ML is already good at.
