The AI I use the most is ChatGPT, so thats the one that knows the most about what Im actually interested in and might be looking to buy.
Ive also talked quite a bit to Gemini and Claude though, so I was interested to see what all three recommended for me, and how their advice differed. I thought Id start with Gemini, and it did a pretty good job. Interestingly it ignored laptops completely and instead went for three categories: Audio & Wearables, Storage & Creators and Smart Home & Productivity.
For Audio and Wearables, Gemini recommended the Sony WH-1000XM5 Headphones, which it claimed were 50% off. If you've been holding out for premium over-ears to block out the world while working, Gemini told me this is likely their lowest price of the year. When I clicked through to the deal the WH-1000XM5 were actually 20% off, for $198 (was $248) / 36% off for 179 (was 279) , which is still not bad, but not as good as Gemini initially said it was.
It also recommended the Beats Solo 4 if you prefer something lighter for travel or active use. Again Gemini claimed these were 50% off, and this time it proved accurate with the Beats Solo 4 at $99.95 (was $199.95) / 99 (was 199.95)
Finally, it recommended the Oura Ring 4 for screen-free health, sleep and stress tracking, the latest Oura ring is heavily discounted at up to 44% off. The actual deal came in at 48% off for the metallic Oura 4 at $259 (was $499) / 34% off 232 (was 349). Beats Solo 4: was $199.95 now $99.50 at Amazon The Beats Solo 4 are wireless on-ear bluetooth headphones with up to 50-Hour battery life. The Amazon Prime Day deal knocks a healthy 50% off the price making them a bargain. View Deal Beats Solo 4: was 199.95 now 99 at Amazon

Day Next I turned to ChatGPT, which turned in a solid performance that was based more on what I was interested in. It knows Id been searching for a Copilot+ AI laptop, so it recommended a few, including the Lenovo Yoga Slim
7X 14-inch laptop and the Samsung Galaxy Book6 Pro , however, they werent
part of the Amazon Prime Day sale.
Generally speaking, ChatGPT seemed less clued into the idea of Prime Day and finding discounts than Gemini did.
Interestingly, ChatGPT did find a couple of Prime Day deals I'd be interested in. It said that I should invest in an Amazon Kindle Scribe , simply because it thought I'd find one useful: You write constantly, generate article ideas constantly, and are working on a Tai Chi book. Scribe is one of those rare gadgets that actually changes how people capture ideas. Kindle devices are among the heavily discounted Prime Day categories this year.
Ive got to admit. I hadnt considered a Scribe before, but I'm starting to
like the idea. Save 24% Amazon Kindle Scribe Colorsoft 64GB: was $679.99 now $519.99 at Amazon The Amazon Kindle Scribe Colorsoft 64GB has an 11
paper-like color display with front light. Thanks to Amazon Prime Day there's a 24% discount on the latest model.

504.99 at Amazon The Amazon Kindle Scribe Colorsoft 64GB has an 11 paper-like color display with front light. Thanks to Amazon Prime Day there's a 20% discount on the latest model.
View Deal One other recommendation that ChatGPT surprised me with, which it described as a "sleeper purchase" was for a 360-degree camera, the Insta360
X4 Air Starter Bundle. Sadly, again there was no Amazon Prime Day deal for it on the US Amazon site, but there was a 26% discount on the UK site with the Insta360 X4 Air Starter Bundle at 289 (was 389) .
The idea of a 360 degree camera is that you never need to aim the camera again. You'll always get the shot. All you need to do is hit record, enjoy
the moment, and pick the best angles later in the app. I think they're really for capturing live action shots, for when you're doing something dramatic.
It's an interesting idea, but perhaps a stretch too far for me. Save 26% Insta360 X4 Air Starter Bundle: was 389 now 289 at Amazon Insta360 X4 Air Starter Bundle is everything you need to get started with a 360 camera. It includes the lightweight 165g 8K 360 Camera, invisible selfie stick, replaceable lenses, built-in wind guard and more. Currently 26% off the
listed price. View Deal Claude picks the deals Finally, I turned to Claude, the AI which knows the least about me. Unsurprisingly it opted for some
fairly generic Prime Day deals on tech.
It noted that the Apple AirTag 2 (second-gen) is at its lowest-ever price a single one for around 17% off, at $24 and a 4-pack for 26% off, at $89.
It also noted that the AirPods Pro 3 are also on sale, at $179.99 (was $249) Save 10% Apple Air Tags (4-Pack): was $99 now $89 at Amazon The 2nd
generation Apple AirTags are a marvelous tracker for your keychain, wallet, and more. They also have a locator with sound, simple one-tap setup with iPhone or iPad. Currently 10% off on Amazon. View Deal Save 15% Apple Air

View Deal Which AI knows you best? But while ChatGPT gave me the best recommendations, both Gemini and Claude found some interesting suggestions for me. Of course, if I told the AI exactly what I was looking
for the suggestions would be been more accurate, but the point of the
exercise was to see what it thought I'd be interested in.
I think my little experiment proved that the amount of time you spend talking to an AI pays off in the long run, with more personal and useful recommendations that actually reflect what youre most interested in.
When it comes to finding deals for events like Amazon Prime Day, the fact
that ChatGPT knows me best resulted in some surprisingly accurate recommendations for me. Okay, I'm still not 100% sure I've got use for a 360-degree camera, but perhaps I just need to broaden my horizons. I definitely want to get a Kindle Scribe, though.
