If you go through that user’s other reviews, while they are very funny, they’re also very AI generated. Tons of contrivances and the classic “and honestly?”

They were almost all posted on April 13th, and they all drop the “brand name” of the product in just really unnatural ways. This is 1,000% a bot.

Yup. On Amazon, always do three things:

Sort reviews by most recent, go to the end, and make sure the reviews are for the same product snd it wasn’t switched (report it if so)

Search reviews for the brand name, skip AI garbage and see how many people say it or are Vine reviews

Read filtered on critical reviews

Thanks for confirming this. I’m atrocious at recognizing AI and thought I was just overthinking these reviews because there were a lot of em dashes

  Lolllll I use the em dash trick too, but some people do just love using them—I definitely went through a phase myself.
