Newegg's ChatGPT-based PC builder is kind of a dumb shill
AI text generation is the hot ticket right now, and Newegg is ready to jump on the bandwagon. In addition to using the popular ChatGPT program for generating website text like product descriptions and customer service chat, the PC-focused web store is integrating the AI system into its PC Builder tool, which first went live last year. Predictably, the tool was already suggesting builds for gaming desktops that were kind of ridiculous. The AI version of the tool doesn't seem to be any better. As PC Gamer notes, the conversation-style text inputs make ChatGPT and Newegg spit out results that are, quote, "extortionate."
