Ever since ChatGPT hit the scene, large language model (LLM) AIs have been popping up all over, making use of it or similar products from OpenAI and other companies. What used to be limited to beta access is now starting to surround us everywhere and now retailers are starting to make use of these technologies as well to enhance your shopping experience. Newegg is a perfect example of this.
The company has built a text-driven AI solution into its website to make shopping for your next PC a tad easier. Specifically, helping consumers with the process of putting together the parts needed based on whatever description is inputted into the interface.
So if you are looking for a new PC to play a specific game or to encode 8K graphics, all you have to do is describe that into the input box. For example, if you type “PC capable of running Cyberpunk 2077 at the highest frame rate possible”, it will attempt to compile a list of parts that will achieve this.
Not only that, but it gives you options to pick from based on a variance of parts or budget. Making it a little more flexible than just a single overpriced solution. Of course, running a game like that at the highest frame rate possible is going to be expensive no matter how you look at it, but it will at least give you an instant idea of what kind of range it falls into. In this case, from expensive to incredibly expensive).
From the start, it seems AI is already making strides in how it affects our daily lives. And this is only the beginning. It won’t be long before it is integrated into just about every website or product we touch. Completely reshaping everything we do.
