Just heard this today - co worker used an LLM to find him some shoes that fit. Basically prompted it to find specific shoes that fit wider/narrower feet and it just scraped reviews and told him what to get. I guess it worked perfectly for him.

I hate this sort of thing - however this is why normies love LLM’s. It’s going to be the new way every single person uses the internet. Hell, on a new win 11 install the first thing that comes up is copilot saying “hey use me i’m better than google!!”

Frustrating.

    These people are so clueless about how capitalism works. There will be an entire industry built around brands manipulating LLMs so their products are chosen. It will be like SEO x 1000

      I keep trying to explain this to people and tell them to quit using it and use their brains, but nope. Truly people are dumber today than ever.
