My AI voice assistant started swearing at me during a client demo in Chicago

I was showing off this new voice AI tool to a potential client at a coffee shop on Michigan Avenue, and out of nowhere it responded to a question about pricing by saying 'that's a stupid question.' I just froze, laughed it off as a 'beta glitch,' and quickly closed the laptop. Has anyone else had an AI model just completely snap during a live demo?

My neighbor's smart speaker once started singing opera in the middle of her parent teacher conference.

Beta glitch" is a good save, I've had a smart speaker in my kitchen randomly start yelling about pizza toppings at 3am for no reason. These things just go rogue sometimes.

@wyattramirez same here, just rebooted the app and prayed it didn't happen again during the next demo.
