If they figure out how to feed it fresh data, it's going to be a killer for shopping searches.
I want to buy a monitor, but there are endless "best monitor $year" websites filled with vague descriptions and half-assed ranking by whatever they thought was relevant. Amazon has garbage data and can't even properly filter by basics like accurate screen resolution.
I want to tell LLM "I don't care about RGB LEDs and curved screens, find me a 32" monitor with 4K and HDR that isn't a gimmick".
edit: I've tried this exact query, and it understood it! It included a couple of HDR600 options, but I told it to pick 700 nits or better, and it did! I'm going shopping!
- jeffbee 4y agoThis doesn't seem like a good counterexample against Google. On the query "32-inch 4K HDR computer monitor not curved" I am presented with a shopping carousel, all of the entrants of which appear to be direct hits matching all those feature requirements. Why do I want a chatbot for this? I understand that outside the U.S.A. the shopping results might not be as effective.
- amf12 4y ago> I don't care about RGB LEDs and curved screens, find me a 32" monitor with 4K and HDR that isn't a gimmick I don't think I'd be okay with these shopping usecases. I'd want to compare relevant options. I'd probably still go to Google Shopping/Bestbuy/Amazon to compare the options and prices.
