    AI can’t even answer basic questions correctly most of the time or handle basic searches for products, how on earth is it supposed to buy something?

      I spend a lot of time looking out for undervalued products on eBay and sniping auctions. It is quite laborious. I imagine it would be most useful in this sort of shopping. Or buying tickets the second they become available, or tracking sites for cheapest air fare or hotels and completing the transaction on those sorts of things.

      I don’t advocate using it. I wouldn’t want to. But I imagine people will use it a lot for things like this.

        Well the reason undervalued auctions exist is usually because they’re hard to find, so with AI doing all the work those won’t exist anymore.
