Amazon, Walmart AI Detect Fake "Made in USA" Labels

Amazon, Walmart AI Detect Fake "Made in USA" Labels

Amazon and Walmart have smart assistants that can spot when a product says it was made in the U.S. but actually wasn’t.

The assistants can see the mistake, but they don’t warn customers or remove the product.

Walmart’s assistant says the law only applies to manufacturers, not stores.

Amazon says it shows country-of-origin info and takes action when sellers break rules.

A study says the technology could help but companies aren’t using it to stop fake labels.
