"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

All it says is that the product information doesn't mention it

The product information does mention it, as highlighted on the right.

You could have read through all the product information yourself to find this out, but the AI did it for you faster.

I did it as a test, since Rufus is shoved in your face now.

All AI did was lead me to believe that it doesn't know, when clearly the information for it to know is right there in plain English.

Amazon condensing product reviews and product info is honestly one of the least intrusive uses of this technology I could think of.

But highly misleading. Another shopper may look at a different, more expensive (as in higher profit) because of this answer.

But on the right it says "compatible with most phone cases," not "case friendly." "Compatible with most phone cases" means it'll probably work with >80% of extant phone cases, while "case friendly" means it likes the case, but only as a friend
