ChatGPT has rolled out an updated feature that allows it to recommend specific products through detailed product cards, complete with reviews and retailer information. While this update aims to improve user experience by providing personalized results, initial tests revealed inaccuracies, especially with unreleased products like the Nintendo Switch 2. The chatbot also mistakenly identified non-existent vendors and inaccurately reported on the availability of products. These issues reflect ongoing challenges AI faces in providing reliable and accurate information amidst its new capabilities.
While ChatGPT acknowledged that retailers have experienced 'rapid sellouts,' it said that Nintendo's own My Nintendo Store was one of those retailers - even though it hasn't started sales yet.
ChatGPT also pointed to some 'third-party sellers and specialized retailers' apparently offering preorders, including a $710 listing on eBay and a platform I've never heard of and can't find on Google called 'Store Collectibles.'
