I'd prefer swearing over a robot who says "Per my last email, ..."

But let's be honest: The thing we're both afraid of is a robot who can get impatient and emotional.

They've already programmed impatience to the chat bots in federal government offices. Get testy and they'll hang up on you. However, they can't get emotional, they lack soul.

They can't get impatient either. Only some vague semblance of what impatience means to a programmer or two.

I think you missed the GP's joke there.

Oh yeah, boo federal government bots because boo federal government. Hilarious.
