    Abstract: An online system receives orders from users and dispatches pickers to fulfill the orders by obtaining ordered items at a retailer. If an ordered item cannot be found by a picker, the picker may refund the item or attempt to find a replacement item. While obtaining a replacement item may increase revenue to the online system, it can also cause a bad outcome for user experience (e.g., an unacceptable replacement item, a refund request of the replacement item, etc.). To balance these interests, the online system trains a model to predict an outcome metric comprising a likelihood of a bad outcome from replacing an item or an expected amount of profit to the online system from a replacement item. The online system compares the outcome metric to a threshold to determine whether to promote or dissuade the picker from replacing a not-found item.

    Abstract: An online system receives information describing a set of items requested by a user and an indication via a chat interface that a particular item needs replacement. The online system generates one or more prompts configured to request a machine learned language model to identify the particular item that needs replacement and to identify one or more replacement items for the particular item. The online system receives a set of item identifiers from the machine learned language model and selects a replacement item from a database based on the set of item identifiers. The online system may also receive an order and a communication history associated with a user including a message with a request to modify the a. The online uses the machine-learning language model to map the request type to the set of API requests for updating the order to reflect the request from the user.

    Abstract: An online system generates text-based representations of various types of data for processing using a large language model. The online system extracts location data from a map of a source location and converts the location data into a text-based representation of the location data. The online system receives a set of item identifiers from a client device of a user and generates an LLM prompt based on the set of item identifiers and the text-based representations of the location data. The online system receives a response from the LLM and parses the response for a text-based description of related items. The online system maps the text-based description of the related items to item identifiers and transmits a notification to the client device that includes item data associated with the related items.

    Abstract: An online system detects an anomaly associated with an item selection made by a picker for fulfilling an order of a user of an online system. The system generates a prompt for execution by a machine-learned model trained as a large language model. The prompt comprises a chat log between the picker and the user. The system provides the prompt to the machine-learned model for execution. The system receives, as output from the machine-learned model and based on the chat log, a description indicating whether the anomaly is attributable to the user. The system determines, based on the output from the machine-learned model, that the item selection is not attributable to the user. Responsive to determining that the item selection is not attributable to the user, the system provides a notification to a client device of the user to confirm whether the item selection is approved by the user.

    Abstract: A machine-learned predictive model is trained to predict potential for customer complaint. The model is part of an online concierge system. The online concierge system accesses a customer order that includes one or more items. The online concierge system determines input data for an item of the one or more items. The online concierge system determines a prediction value associated with potential for customer complaint for the item by applying the machine-learned prediction model to the input data. The online concierge system provides the prediction value to a picker client device associated with a picker who is assigned the item. The picker client device presents an alert to the picker based in part on the prediction value, and the alert includes a message that is customized to mitigate a cause of potential customer complaint for the item.
