Kettled twice. Extra chewy, extra trustworthy.
Summary
Amazon is launching a new feature that allows shoppers to use Alexa and AI text prompts to generate custom images that can be printed on demand onto T-shirts, water bottles, and other merchandise. The feature builds on Amazon's existing Merch on Demand service, which previously only allowed users to upload their own images or use clip art. While Amazon highlights use cases like family reunions and pet-themed designs, the move threatens the existing ecosystem of drop-shipped products and custom printing companies by making AI-generated custom merch easily accessible.
