    Fake reviews sure, but what does comparisons have to do with it? Sounds like a perfect use for an LLM to compare two different product description pages.

      Nah fuck that. If I’m seeking out detailed comparisons, I’d rather real world reports from an enthusiast or someone knowledgeable in the field. I’m not talking just comparing side-by-side specs, I can do that with two browser windows myself. The problem is that you’ll find these reports, but they’re absolute drivel written either by machine that has no idea what the hell it’s talking about, or a sponsored content “article” written by some yoyo that’s clearly being paid to promote one product over the other.

        I find the AI summaries of reviews Amazon does on product pages to be fairly inoffensive and generally a decent use of AI.

        But it’s also clearly marked as auto-generated.
