Fun new game just dropped! Go to the internet platform of your choice, type “goes against OpenAI use policy,” and see what happens. The bossman dropped a link to a Rick Williams Threads post in the chat that had me go check Amazon out for myself.

    At least this policy is making it easy to spot bot accounts and autogenerated product listings.

    These sellers should be shadowbanned and penalized, there is absolutely no justification to have an LLM auto-generate product listings unless the intent is to create spam

      I don’t think there are that many bots here because of [reason 1], [reason 2], and [reason 3].

      And I for one am certainly not a “goes against OpenAI use policy".

      There is a place for using LLMs to fluff up text or help with translation, but you shouldn’t by copy/pasting blindly, or just scripting it out 100%.

      The true failure here is Amazon, who takes no responsibility for what they sell. They let anyone anyone create a product listing with no oversight.
