I suspect that the real reason is because non-cherry picked answers don't work as well and that if you interact with it you'll be no more impressed that decades of chatbots that aren't all that much more impressive than ELIZA.

I think part of the reason is that chat bots tend to be racist without any intentional effort to make them so. I saw a post last year where someone built the most default language AI setup using the most popular training data and then got it to rank words based on their positivity. Without any intentional effort the AI ranked English names as positive and African/Asian/etc names as neutral or negative words.
