Really? I found this demo painful to watch and literally felt that "cringe" feeling. I showed it to my partner and she couldn't even stand to hear more than a sentence of the conversation before walking away.

It felt both staged and still frustrating to listen to.

And, like far too much in AI right now, a demo that will likely not pan out in practice.

This, everyone had to keep interrupting and talking over it to stop it from waffling on.

I had the same reaction. I agree that it sounded very staged, but it also sounded far too cheerful and creepily flirty too. Unbearable.
