AI shopping assistants are under fire as shoppers report issues with finding the best deals.
The problem started when users noticed inconsistencies in pricing and availability. Many claimed the AI didn’t deliver on its promise to secure the best deals across retail platforms.
Soon after, complaints flooded social media. Frustrated customers shared screenshots showing price differences. Some reported items that the AI suggested were out of stock.
Companies behind these AI tools have not responded with significant updates. They are monitoring the backlash closely.
The issue raises questions about the reliability of AI in retail. Will shoppers trust these tools again? Time will tell.
For now, shoppers are taking matters into their own hands.
"I thought I’d save money, but it made things worse," one user stated.
"Now I double-check everything before buying," another added.
Expect more developments in the coming days.
