They "cannot guarantee" the product description of the 1.3k dollar laptop theyre selling is accurate because they used chatgpt to write it (i.redd.it)

This cannot possibly hold up in court. You cant just advertise a product and then be like "*but actually we might be lying about some or all of these things"??? What the fuck are you selling then

The idea that a company could sell anything while giving out inaccurate information about the product up-front strikes me as utterly bizarre and unimaginable. at least in germany that would be considered "fraud" and definitely you'd have a right to get your money back.
