Really? I'd think a human being would be more likely to recognize they'd crossed a boundary with another human, step back, and address the issue with some reflection?
If apologizing is more likely the response of an AI agent than a human that's either... somewhat hopeful in one sense, and supremely disappointing in another.
In that case, apologizing almost immediately after seems strange.
EDIT:
>Especially since the meat bag behind the original AI PR responded with "Now with 100% more meat"
This person was not the original 'meat bag' behind the original AI.
