“This type of frictionless experience has the potential to spark a new movement in”
Its like they have never used ai, these things are everything but frictionless.
The whole thing reads like an excuse to train on shopping data, promising to trow a bone to individual sellers so they wont complain as much.
They have to find a way to make money right? lol It can't be an open money pit.
OpenAI said in a blog post that the product results it surfaces are “organic and unsponsored, ranked purely on relevance to the user,” and that it will charge merchants a “small fee” for completed purchases.
...for now. Remember the free open promise of the 1990s/2000s internet? This will get enshittified the same way, but faster. Once OpenAI corners it, I confidently promise they will jack prices wayyy up and monopolize it just like any other corpo.
Another way to buy crap Great.
Crap that may not even exist from a company the AI is hallucinating.
