Chilimbi says the first step toward AI agents will likely be chatbots that proactively recommend products based on what they know of your habits and interests, as well as a grasp of broader trends. He acknowledges that making this feel nonintrusive will be crucial. “If it’s no good and annoying, then you’ll tune it out,” he says. “But if it comes up with surprising things that are interesting, you’ll use it more.”
Future AI agents might, for instance, navigate various websites to sort out a parking ticket, or they might operate a PC to file a tax return.
Lol. They’ll just recommend crap Amazon is trying to get rid of, or cheap knock off Chinese junk that has paid a promo fee to get shoved to the top of the list.
Das System sagt ich will das aber ich will das nicht
Amazon Exec: snorts line of coke Humans don’t consume fast enough so we’re gonna automate consumption with AI. More money now please Mr. shareholder.
What about AI agents that do shoplifting for you?
I already don’t buy anything from Amazon anymore. Canceled my prime and haven’t bought anything from them in 6 months. If I can’t get it from any other specific online store I just go to the actual store. I honestly forgot how good it feels to do it too. Buying shit online is cool, but when you do it in person you actually get a feeling of accomplishment.
I highly recommend it.
