The Duolingo chatbot keeps mocking me.
“I remember you told me you gave an unusual name to your cat,” it tells me. “What was it, again? I named my cat Misty. It is an easy to pronounce, beautiful name for a cat. What’s your cat named?”
“Misty!” I yell. “Misty is MY cat’s name!”
“Meestah?” the bot asks, sarcastically. “That is quite a strange name for a cat. You should have named it Misty, like I did.”
On the next day, the bot continues discussing cats.
“I have two cats,” it tells me. “They are called Misty and Meestah. My daughter Klara and I play with them every Sunday morning before church. Do you have any children? Or cats?”
