- RavlaAlvar 2y agoWhat are you talking about, they added a chat bot on amazon.com
- riffraff 2y agoI believe it must be US-only then, I don't see it in my european amazon.
- ok123456 2y agoAmazon has its own AI, "rufas," plastered on the site.
- datadrivenangel 2y agoAnd for a while it would helpfully generate python code for you!
- TheRealSteel 2y agoProduct pages on Amazon now have AI review summaries. I like it in theory, but the cynical part of me is suspicious they're somehow using it to skew things positive.
- righthand 2y agoAws docs has a chat bot.
- rurp 2y agoThey even had a very Microsoft style rollout for it, where a huge modal for the chat bot would pop up and cover most of the page every single time you went to the docs, with no way to disable it. I tried it out with a very simple database sorting question, and got a completely wrong answer. I don't think I've used it since.
- righthand 2y agoWhat was hilarious to me was I tried using it to figure out a niche config. I couldn’t use it because my employer totally locks down permissions. Not going to request bot access any time soon.
