EBay ads written by AI

[mobileweld]

Are lots of ebay ads being written by AI now?

Im toying with the idea of getting a van rather than my pickup. Browsing through different ones I keep reading virtually the same nonesense adverts that are just plenty of words but no real description of the vehicle. Is anyone else finding this?

If that's written by AI then god help us also if that's written by a human then god help us, what's happened to the education system.

There’s plenty all written with a similar format. It’s like they are done with a template.

I was looking at an advert for a car last night and was thinking the exact same thing. Not how I would have written a description of a vehicle. Then I was wondering if it was a fake ad

Sounds as its written by an Estate Agent.

That usually shouts scam to me. And the items are often well below market value.

You're wasted in farming Tim. You really should have been a detective.

Some will be scams but you have the option now to write a small description then click a button and AI will write a paragraph.

Turns this

Into this bullish!t

If I had to read sh1te like that in an advert i`d be thinking "scam", and try to find a different route to buy a vehicle.....
I remember many years ago being on the village Parish Council and we got a "letter" from John Prescott ( labour politician of two jags fame, I think he was deputy prime minister or something like that at the time!) - anyway it was just a complete loads of bo11oc*s like those two adverts - I wonder is this AI stuff based on "politician" speak???

And we still think AI will have the capability to wipe us all out?

Has anyone experience of "grammerty", I think it's called? See it advertised on FB and wonder. I get a bit fed up with the automatic spell checker high lighting perfectly good English. But we are all Mini America now.

That sounds like a politician has wrote it...

Completely the opposite of what you actually want to know

This is not AI it is database management which recognises certain products then substitutes its own wording sourced from another database of product descriptions. Couple that with lazy posters who are happy to list their item with a totally untrue description. Buyer beware is the rule
