       @john it’s not AI, it’s a command line interface with a spectacularly dodgy keyboard.

       @john mostly seems to be a voice recogniser attached to the sort of verb-noun command loop we used in early 90s text adventure games, including the "Guess which verbs have been encoded" mini-game. :-)
