It turns out most people want to socialize with their friends, not some corporate AI constantly trying to sell you stuff. It's way closer to a stuffy car salesman than a friend.

Yep, I've seen screenshots of it. It actually inserts ads into the conversations, hence why Snapchat is trying to push it on you.
