@ILiedAboutCake on Twitter seems to have first noted that Amazon has a new review search engine, Rufus!

… it’s just a ChatGPT prompt window. You can ask it about Barack Obama. You can ask it to write your Python script for you.

Corey Quinn (@quinnypig) notes the pornographic limerick that doesn’t rhyme properly

Phil Calcado (@pcalcado) notes that it will happily send you to competitors.

    Is this just on the app? I tried this on the website and it’s just giving me reviews and Q&A responses related to the product I was on.

        I never felt there was a good reason for this app, they sell stuff online, and that works just fine in a browser without an app spying on my every move.
