A survey examining the communication styles and approaches when using artificial technology, automated services and chatbots found nearly half adopt a polite manner and think it's appropriate to say please and thank you. Forty-eight percent of Americans think so and Gen Z are the nicest to robots. Do you consider yourself polite when using A.I. (Alexa, Siri, ChatGPT, etc)

Conducted by Talker Research, the survey found just 7% described their approach to chatbots and automated encounters as sometimes 'impolite'—admitting to swearing or being abrupt in manner. Have you ever sworn at A.I. or a chatbot?

Manners may count for something because four in 10 Americans (39%) think one day our past behavior towards AI, Alexa, Siri and all things robot will be taken into account somehow. Do you agree with that statement?
