Completely agree here. Stop anthropomorphizing these tools. Just remove the extra language. Don't say please or thank you. Just ask for the desired outcome.

Sonnet is its own thing. Which is fine.
We've known that eg. animals have emotions (functional or not) for quite a long time.
Btw: don't go looking on youtube for evidence of that. People outrageously anthropomorphizing their pets can be true at the same time.
