  "account": "ChatGPT has just adopted one of Google Shopping's most popular features. The AI tool can now virtually try on clothes using a selfie or full-body photo, thanks to ChatGPT Images 2.5. Users can also upload clothing links or outfit photos, request ChatGPT to locate similar products, and virtually try on those recommendations. OpenAI is enhancing the functionality by adding Favorites and folders for saved products. Reference photos can be reused for future try-ons or removed from settings. ChatGPT introduced basic shopping features in April of the previous year, despite the AI tool's shopping recommendations not always being entirely accurate, with recent reports of it displaying fake stores and fraudulent storefronts. Nevertheless, OpenAI is persisting in expanding ChatGPT's shopping capabilities, with the latest addition directly inspired by Google Shopping's capabilities, allowing users to virtually try on clothes and see how they appear on their body type. This development follows OpenAI's decision to discontinue its Instant Checkout feature.",
