Ha ha - I had a similar experience with DeepSeek-R1 itself. After a fruitful session getting it to code a web page for me (interactive React component), I then said something brief like "Thanks" which threw it into a long existential tailspin questioning it's prior responses etc, before it finally snapped out of it and replied appropriately. :)
That's too relatable. If I was helping someone for a while and they wrote "thanks" with the wrong punctuation I would definitely assume they're mad at or disappointed with me.
