Rufus is Amazon’s AI chatbot that started showing up on product pages for some users this month. Rufus can help you with questions like “What are good gifts for Valentine’s Day?” or “What are the differences between trail and road running shoes?” You can also ask Rufus about a specific product on Amazon, like “Is this jacket machine washable?” Rufus will use the product listing, customer reviews, and community Q&As to give you an answer.

The video above shows that Rufus will also suggest questions even if you’re searching for something simple, like “coffee maker.” I don’t know if I want more things on my screen when I search, but I’ll have to see for myself if it’s helpful.
