Even if you use ai to spit out word salad product descriptions, aren't you going to at least manually review it to make sure it got the name right?

Hahahahaha

Oh wait, you're serious. Let me laugh even harder.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!


Serious answer: we're talking about drop-shipping "companies" whose entire business model is inserting themselves as middlemen while outsourcing every actual aspect of their "business." Of course they're going to aggressively avoid doing anything that takes actual work!

They're literally just writing a script to query OpenAI and feed the results to Amazon, then waiting for the profits to flow in. They don't give a fuck about quality or anything else.
