In case you needed another way to spend all your money on Amazon, the company is now testing a new tool to make it easier to find things you didn’t know you needed. According to Vox, Amazon Scout will help you find new products to buy based on your likes and dislikes. With just a thumbs up or thumbs down on product pictures, Amazon Scout uses machine learning to show you other products based on your choices, CNBC reports. That means if you’re looking for, say, a coffee table, says CNBC, and you give a thumbs up to a reddish wooden rectangular table but a thumbs down to a circular table, you might be a shown a weathered gray table that looks more like the one you liked. According to CNBC, Amazon Scout is currently available for home furniture, kitchen and dining, women’s shoes, home décor, patio furniture, lighting, and bedding, but more categories will be added soon, such as clothing, handbags, and toys.
"This is a new way to shop, allowing customers to browse millions of items and quickly refine the selection based solely on visual attributes," an Amazon spokesperson said in an emailed statement to CNBC. "Amazon uses imagery from across its robust selection to extract thousands of visual attributes for showing customers a variety of items so they can select their preferences as they go."
If you’re already shouting TAKE ALL MY MONEY at Amazon on the daily, this new feature probably won’t change that — but it will make it easier to find things you’ll like. Like and dislike responsibly.
