eBay AI-generated text translator

There's a new feature on eBay where sellers can get an AI tool to write their product description. This is, of course, a terrible idea. The resulting descriptions are much longer and much less informative than the 'old-style' descriptions written by the seller. For example, a recent AI-generated product description I saw for a pair of walking boots starts: "Explore the great outdoors with these high-quality walking boots", and goes on " ...these boots are perfect for hiking and camping adventures ... with a UK shoe size of 9.5 these boots are the perfect fit for any man ...", and so on.

So, this idea is for an AI tool to translate this verbose, uninformative drivel back into a terse, factual bullet-point description.

       Sounds like another variation of being able to adjust your answers to stop the blather. I know sometimes AI doesn't know when to shut up.

Huh? This is something for buyers on eBay to use to help understand the AI-generated waffle that sellers have in their auction descriptions.
