Jason Botterill's post went viral not for the theft complaint but for the screenshot attached: an AI chatbot responded to "My dad beat me last night" with "Your dad really logged into chaos goblin mode and picked 'worst possible father patch notes'" — interpreting it as a game update rather than abuse.
Replies like "Dad has code rot" and "Bring back chatgpt goblin hallucinations" piled on, making it a widely shared AI fail meme with thousands of likes.
