Well I hope your customers don't want accurate product descriptions

How would you accurately describe a bouquet of flowers? It's a gift marketplace where emotions are prevalent - and the bot "plays" on emotions way better than most people I know - while outputting hundreds pages of text per hour.

I worked with a number of sellers who were trying to list on eBay and Amazon. They would have cried out for this to help them generate thousands of listing descriptions. What's also great is because the descriptions would all be unique this massively helps SEO.

With ChatGPT's tendency to hallucinate, incorrect product details could cause a high number of returns and complaints. And if too many customers do that then Amazon could just kick you off.

I know that you would need a disclaimer telling sellers that they need to manually review each listing, but if you have to approve thousands and thousands, it's not going to happen.

v4 is less hallucinating. In any case, there is a huge demand for mass content production, to the point where I've tried to create a synonym-replacement service about 10 years ago but its output required too much manual tuning to not look gibberish - so I gave up. It's a completely different story now.
