Amazon has been hit with a wave of odd AI-generated listings.

The site has been playing host to items with names such as, « I cannot fulfill this request as it goes against OpenAI use policy. » The trend was noticed on social media, with users sharing screenshots of the listings.

One dresser previously listed on Amazon was called, « I’m sorry but I cannot fulfill this request it goes against OpenAI use policy. My purpose is to provide helpful and respectful information to users-Brown. »

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. » The listing has also been removed from the site.

While Amazon has been known to struggle with AI-generated reviews, this new trend raises questions about how thoroughly the site reviews some of its product listings.

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. »

« We have removed the listings in question and are further enhancing our systems, » the spokesperson continued.

AI is already being used to flood other areas of the internet with content. On X, a similar phrase has popped up in seemingly AI-generated posts.
