Nope! That violates the deeply rooted basis of law for the sale of goods. Such sales are subject to individual states' laws, but most follow Article 2 of the Uniform Commercial Code. There is inherently no meeting of the minds (the very foundation on all contract law dating back before America was even discovered by Europeans) if AI is engaging in anything commercial in nature, much more so if they're mistakes.

You cannot pull a bait and switch on non-conforming/mistaken goods without letting the other party choose to accept or reject the goods. This is more so if that choice is made before the mistake is discovered and the price changed. Here, the supplier has engaged in the risk of loss by utilizing an untested replacement for workers.

Also, how is the recieving party supposed to know they're not tendering an alternative replacement of non-conforming goods?

    There were laws about IPs and copyright, the kind that would prevent any corp from parsing basically the whole internet and use it without any restriction or consideration for the content creators. Do you remember what happened to those?
