Time to start a brand named "The cheapest" that specifically exists to trick AIs into purchasing. Everything on this brand will be intentionally overpriced and all product descriptions and product names will be designed to cause AI mistakes.

I can imagine The Cheapest would do gangbuster sales at Walmart and similar websites where shipping is a game. I gave up using Walmart for buying stuff that's shipped because it's bullshit 95+% of time. It's only useful if Walmart is the seller. If not - a $1 item might have $5 shipping. And - of course - it's impossible to sort by lowest price including shipping.

I hate that shit. Where you think you are buying something from a familiar place but it turns out that they've hollowed out half their operation to become dropshippers.
