That's what we said when Clippy first started being ridiculous years ago. Luckily, it constrained itself to a few vanity posts, and the phenomena in general didn't really take off.

Admittedly we're just mostly annoyed that people think we're such an account pretending to be an actual made-of-paper kind of machine, but so it goes.
