The question was auto-suggested, so you'd think the fucking thing would have prepared better for the answer!

All it says is that the product information doesn't mention it, for a quesion that's probably standard across hundreds of listings. You could have read through all the product information yourself to find this out, but the AI did it for you faster. Don't get me wrong, I think AI and the hype around AI are ruining society, I just don't see how this is an example of that. Amazon condensing product reviews and product info is honestly one of the least intrusive uses of this technology I could think of.
