Chatbots Are Back And They're About to Take Over

Miss Piggy doesn't like it when I ask her about Kermit. We're having a conversation in Facebook's Messenger app, and the famous Muppet is trying to convince me to watch her fictional talk show Up Late With Miss Piggy, whose backstage hijinks provide the plot of ABC's show The Muppets. She gushes about the show's house band, Electric Mayhem--"VERY hairy"--and asks me whether I'd rate the program a 10 out of 10 or a mere 9 out of 10. But when I ask about her green ex-lover, she snaps. "I wish everyone would stop asking me about Kermit...I've moved on."
