MODERATORS
I can't find any of those.
Amazon removed them all within 24 hours of this being reported. Bad press does work.
So the conclusion is that Amazon is using OpenAI to write their titles, and possibly even to create listings?
Third party sellers on Amazon, not Amazon itself.
Amazon isn't doing this, their sellers are. What this shows is how full Amazon's product listings are with counterfeits sold by lazy scammers from China. Don't trust Amazon for anything.
