This is the best summary I could come up with:
The site has been playing host to items with names such as, "I cannot fulfill this request as it goes against OpenAI use policy."
One dresser previously listed on Amazon was called, "I'm sorry but I cannot fulfill this request it goes against OpenAI use policy.
The trend suggests companies might be using OpenAI's popular chatbot to create product descriptions, including item names, without reviewing the final results.
Another listing, which appears to be a piece of hose, is titled: "I apologize, but I cannot complete this task it requires using trademarked brand names which goes against OpenAI use policy."
Representatives for Amazon and OpenAI did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider, made outside normal working hours.
In a statement shared with Futurism, the company said: "We work hard to provide a trustworthy shopping experience for customers, including requiring third-party sellers to provide accurate, informative product listings."
