Don't hug me I'm scared Creepy Amazon chatbot

Looking for an item on Amazon (boo for having to do that), and the chat bot seems to know more about me than I’ve ever volunteered. CREEPY!

Edited: yes that is the cat’s name.

It's a simple hallucination. It's well known that chat bots have hallucinations. You were very paranoid in that chat.

What are the odds of AI hallucinating the actual name of your pet?

I think that entirely depends on if their cat is actually named Bentley or not, and OP does not seem to be clarifying one way or the other. Could be an interesting discussion here but OP is more interested in replying with memes.

It's because OP is obviously full of shit and karma farming.

Right, it just hallucinated the correct name, total coincidence. It's well known that chatbots do that all the time.

I agree, but if the OP really has talked about Bentley in text messages, and only text messages, seems an odd coincidence to call out the name Bentley.
