She would buy them all whatever Amazon said was the hot toy that year for each kid’s age. She would definitely shop with AI. A little crass, sure, but real shopper behavior.

Interesting but what's the point here? Just give the nephews some money and let them figure out what they want themselves.

Many people want to give gifts instead of cash, rational or not. The point is, if the use cases exist, it’s not strange for software to address them.
