A.I. description errors running rampant on ebay

I'm really getting fed up with all the lazy sellers using A.I. generated item descriptions.

I have purchased several used items that were not what they were described to be because of incompetent A.I. generated descriptions. 

I feel this is leaving sellers open to more negative feedback and lost sales, why don't sellers realize this? 

Here's a simple tip, do your own research on your items & PROOF READ your descriptions before you list them!

I can understand your frustration with inaccurate item descriptions. Here are some insights and a suggestion for sellers:

It’s unfortunate to hear that AI-generated item descriptions have led to misleading or inaccurate representations of products. Inaccurate descriptions can undoubtedly lead to negative feedback and lost sales for sellers. It’s essential for sellers to recognize the importance of accurate and detailed descriptions to build trust with their customers.

Tips for Sellers:

  1. Do Your Own Research: Take the time to research your items thoroughly to understand their unique features and conditions.

  2. Proofread Descriptions: Even if you use AI tools to generate descriptions, always proofread and edit them to ensure accuracy and relevance.

  3. Personal Touch: Add personal insights or experiences with the item to make the description more authentic and trustworthy.

  4. Quality Over Quantity: Focus on providing clear, concise, and accurate descriptions rather than relying solely on AI-generated content.

By taking these steps, sellers can enhance their credibility, reduce negative feedback, and improve their overall sales performance.

That's AI all over - I often feel like it has 'decided' that all humans are about five years old and need to be dumbed down to.

You seem to be attributing the incompetence to AI when you should be attributing it to the seller.

Or the buyer that bought something based off of the AI description.
