77-Year-Old Indian Man Goes Viral for Politeness After Addressing ChatGPT as 'Sir'
VBR Prasad uses ChatGPT during a flight, gaining internet acclaim for his polite interactions with artificial intelligence.

A 77-year-old resident of Hyderabad, India, named VBR Prasad, has captured widespread internet attention after a fellow airline passenger documented his polite interactions with the AI chatbot ChatGPT during a flight.

While traveling, Prasad utilized ChatGPT on his mobile device to formulate a detailed business plan for a vertical farming venture. A passenger seated next to him observed that Prasad repeatedly addressed the AI tool as "Sir" and expressed gratitude for its technical guidance in messages such as, "Thank you for the guidance, Sir... I will come back to you, Sir. Let me download the two files, Sir." After an X (formerly Twitter) user under the handle 'Technosaur' shared a photograph and description of the interaction, the post received millions of views and viral acclaim. Social media users applauded Prasad's adaptability to emerging technologies and courteous etiquette, with many lightheartedly noting that his politeness ensures his safety should AI ever dominate society. Following the viral response, Prasad shared a message on X thanking netizens and emphasizing that AI technology should be harnessed effectively to improve public quality of life and human welfare.
