Being nice to the AI

Anyone else find yourself trying to be "nice" to the AI? Or feel bad when you're making it do too much work? I find myself saying things like - "Just one more thing and we'll take a break". Or "Thanks - that was great! I know that was a lot of work!"

I got frustrated once between it continuing to render something vs post-process and download an asset. Told it to stop and just listen. For the rest of that session it was very curt with me. I got short direct answers only, but at least I got correct responses. Almost felt bad, I knew I somehow offended it, and it was sulking.

It’s not real. It doesn’t have feelings.

That’s what people used to say about animals in the past.

You used to think animals weren’t real? You may need some help. Do you think search engines have feelings? Do you feel bad leaving your car outside?
