It makes sense though, doesn't it? I imagine someone going in knowing it's machine learning doesn't have too many false assumptions, but they are being programmed in a way to mimic humans. The voice recognition part has come an incredible long way and I would not be surprised that this makes the uninitiated expect more of the language model than actually is there.

In this era of atomic isolation, even I wanted to believe it's true. Having an algorithm that remembers my name through reboots would deepen the sense that there is a pretty developed entity helping me. Luckily I skimp on the premium versions.
