      It’s some ML/AI thing that analyzes the review content.

      I honestly have no idea how accurate it is either, but I guess if it gives a strong ranking back you’d probably be best to take that into consideration.

        to add to this, it uses that to check for patterns it already knows in the reviews themselves, and also goes into each account that submitted a review and checks their account history as well for recognized patterns.

        there’s lots of stuff it picks up on, like one small example being if it spots a group of accounts that all reviewed only the same items around the same times, using similar sentence structures, though that’s a really obvious one
