AI chatbots don't say things like "that's not enough pay for my work," or "that's harassment," or "we're forming a union."
I'm guessing that's what the guy meant by "talk back."
or "all due respect, sir, that's a stupid idea" or "you're asking the impossible" or "maybe with an unlimited budget and five years, but by next week and on a shoestring? not happening"
what they want to hear is "the Mars project is ahead of schedule and under budget, just as per your genius plan"
it doesn't matter if their ridiculous asks are unachievable; the important thing is feeling like they are absolutely in charge and in control
even if the box does NOTHING, even if everything outside its purview is an absolute trainwreck, it's working perfectly fine so long as it strokes their egos
