This meme is getting old.

idk I do think it's worth pointing out sometimes that the ways these models mess up are very similar to the ways that humans mess up. It's funny you can almost always look at an obvious failure of an LLM and think of an equivalent way that a human might make the same (or a similar) mistake. It doesn't make the failure any less of a failure, but it is thought-provoking and worthwhile to point it out. Obviously this pa…

But a human can only mess up so many times per second. Even if it wasn't AI, if it was just a pill that allowed them to type unhumanly fast, once they have the power to scale up their incompetence (or predation) they're a new kind of danger.

Using Amazon for shopping is terrible, borderline unusable in 2024. They're hard to compete with because they're giant and have an amazing logistics network, but it also seems like there's a big vacuum in the market for an "everything store" that's actually good.

In my experience, Amazon has devolved into AliExpress/DHGate but with higher prices and faster shipping. The throwaway products also make more of an effort to Americanize the syllables of their brand name

AI gone wrong or marketing stunt? Probably the former. But the thing doesn't look half bad one the pictures. Looks like something you might get from IKEA under one of their "slightly better quality" lines (which at least in the EU are pretty good choice if you don't want to spend too much on furniture but also feel that the main line lines from IKEA are a bit to cheap in quality).

I was leaning toward the latter because OpenAI doesn’t usually have poor grammar like that.

There's more than one of these: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=OpenAI+use+policy

My favorite so far, the entire product description is chef's kiss : https://www.amazon.com/haillusty-Apologize-fulfill-violates-...

Already gone. What did it say?

They're fine at selling stuff, they're absolutely horrendous at being a place to search for a product if you don't know exactly what you're looking for. The solution is just to look for third-party specialist review sites who know what they're talking about.

> third-party specialist review sites

Are there any that you can recommend? Google seems very unreliable in that department these days, it's very hard to say which reviews are honest and which ones are basically ads. There's also the additional complication that some sites that try to be honest receive products from manufacturers, which limits what they can say to keep their manufacturer relationships going.

Yeah we must. Nothing I but from Amazon is what I expect and top that off with it arrives late despite me paying for prime. I ordered a blender last week that doesn’t even blend, which I only realized after I had loaded it up with stuff to make a smoothie. When things show up and actually are what I expect based off of the image and they work right it is a rare surprise.

Counting it up, I've ordered 58 times from Amazon in 2023 and every single item was exactly what I asked for, and arrived within a few days. I wonder why we're having such wildly different experiences...

Yeah same here, 67 orders and no issues, perhaps it's a location thing?

I don't use Amazon at all anymore. In fact I uninstalled the app yesterday!

I uninstalled it a few weeks ago because the Android app started injecting a "search this term on Amazon" button that popped when whenever I selected text in any app

Retail is so low-margin that it will never be very good. Amazon, Walmart, Ebay, are all very imperfect businesses. Even Costco is rough to deal with for the suppliers - there’s just no way to do this at scale while being all nice and fuzzy Amazon is especially bad though

All they have to do is get rid of the 3rd party storefront and hire people to stock and procure vetted goods instead of having it be a free-for-all.

There are plenty of stores that do this. The selection is much lower and prices are higher.

It's barely even usable for buying Kindle books anymore. Half the time I get tricked into buying a book my Kindle doesn't support and I have to spend half an hour yelling at support to get my money back. Because they let you do the "buy and deliver to my kindle" thing even when your kindle is not supported. Then only when you grab your kindle to sync you learn the bad news.

This is very surprising to me. I've got a kindle from 2013 and never had any issue with unsupported books.

Is yours super older or what?
