All things Shopify and commerce
I work at a nursery and I'm the main point person for regular website maintenance, and for the past few weeks I've been putting up with these stupid purple text pop-ups trying to get me to add meta-fields and re-categorize my products, but all of the AI suggestions are wrong and unhelpful. They're giving suggestions for the wrong product colors, the wrong scientific classifications, and unhelpful suggestions of where the products should be planted.
From a cursory search, it seems like there is no way to turn off the suggestions, and most likely (by my assumption) no way to opt out of my writing being used to further train these stupid LLMs from giving pointless recommendations to other people in future. Am I wrong? Do I have the ability to opt out of both? And if not, I really think that option should be given to Shopify platform users.
Unfortunately, Shopify currently doesn’t provide a direct option to disable AI-generated recommendations in the admin interface. While some suggestions can be dismissed individually, there’s no global setting to turn them off completely.
As for opting out of AI training, Shopify’s terms don’t specify a way to exclude your content from being used for model improvements. If this is a major concern, reaching out to Shopify support might be the best route, they can confirm if there’s a hidden setting or escalate feedback.
Also, if the suggestions are completely off-target, providing negative feedback within the UI (where available) might help refine them over time.
Hy masonUCHN,
That sounds really frustrating, especially when the AI suggestions are completely off. I haven’t seen a way to disable them either, but it would definitely make sense for Shopify to offer an opt-out. Have you tried reaching out to Shopify support about it? Maybe others here have found a workaround.
