I am always tempted to say please when I attempt (usually unsuccessfully) to use Siri or the Google voice recogniser.
Is it just me or should these bots/applications or whatever they are be designed with polite manners in mind?

My mother used to say "Good manners cost nothing"
But then, she used to say "If a strange man offers you sweeties to get in his car, GO!" so it may not be a good recommendation.

When they take over the world, Siri will probably be our boss.
Being polite to her from the beginning would appear to be a good idea.

Ah! But then we will be able to give incorrect answers and misunderstand instructions. Can't wait...

Yang Shuo, a worker at a Beijing-based public relations company, told Xinhua that the sudden update interrupted his drafting of a business plan and led to a meeting cancellation for a deal worth 3 million yuan ($457,735). 'Just because I didn't see the pop-up reminder does not mean I agreed.'"
