I really hate it. In fact, it's hard to listen to because it's been built to reply in such a sycophant way. Everything is enthusiastic and positive when that's not how real life is. I'm paraphrasing obviously, but it's like "OMG you're wearing a leather jacket and a light colored shirt, you're so cool!" and "You're in an industrial place with lighting, that's so awesome!"

I'd rather they work on code that optimizes the validity of the results and prevents hallucinations rather than work on emotive responses.

Nah, it's just that corporations will obviously want to be as positive as possible! After all, happy people are more exploitable/profitable people!

This is literally how the fake happy cyberpunk dystopias happen.
