It’s not just you. Research says people don’t like overtly friendly AI chatbots

A Tech Xplore-reported study suggests people prefer AI chatbots whose tone matches their own communication style.

Users often disliked bots that sounded too cheerful or exaggeratedly friendly.

The findings point to personality compatibility as a key factor in conversational AI design.

This could push companies like OpenAI, Google, Microsoft, and Meta toward more adaptive chatbot personalities.
