Iām beginning to notice more frequently that some products have reviews that are a majority 5 stars, if not all. The reviewās content and buyerās name are all different, but what is common is that the review has been written flawlessly: language, grammar, context, punctuation. These are no doubt generated by AI.
This product, for example, has all 5 stars other than 3 reviews that happen to be much shorter, terse, not the same mellifluous currant-scented language, and of course have a lower rating.
Wondering if anyone else is beginning to see this or am I slow and the āAI generatedā 5-star reviews have been going on for a longer time? I obviously avoid such products who employ these schemes.

Amazonās reviews are getting almost useless anymore. I only read one and two star reviews and base my purchases of of those.
Maybe you got a flash deal, this item is $26.99 on the mothership.
A big problem that Amazon has not addressed is that their Vine Voice program that is supposed to provide honest reviews on new items or those with few reviews has been taken over by bots who snatch up all the items before the human reviewers get to them and the AI bot reviews skew the product rating. Future purchases are swayed by those reviews and it waters down the system. Eventually sellers will stop using the program. They need to clean up the bots on that first.

I did notice an item recently that had only 4 reviews, no Vines, but they were all done on the same date, all 5 star, and each name was the same format: a first followed by a last, starting with a capital letter, with no space between. Obviously fakes.
