Hey Mercedes, tell me a joke

Has anyone with a GLB in the US had any luck with asking MBUX to tell you a joke?

With so many commands she asks me to repeat myself and then says she isn’t able to “help me at this time”.

This place is a joke.
This isn't Tesla. German engineers are too serious. No wonder MB has lost so much market share to Tesla.

according to this video, it’s something MBUX should be able to do, among a few other funny replies.

Yes, she has replied to my question "Tell me a Joke" many times. Something about her having german engineers and why she can't tell a joke, something along those lines.
We also heard her say "Woof Woof' once, but for the life of me we cant figure out what we asked her but it was some sort of directions questions in Indiana. We thought "Hey Mercedes, what noise does a dog make would get her to say it, but that doesn't work.
She also replies to you if you ask " Hey Mercedes, do you love me?" She doesn't say yes, but something about how she likes to be out on the road... weird replies..

Well dang. I don’t know why she doesn’t understand me when I ask. I don’t have an accent at all. That’s a bummer.

See if someone else asks her the same questions and if she responds?

Oh I’m so jealous. I tried a bunch of other commands yesterday “hey Mercedes do you love me, what do you think of BMW, who is your father?” And none worked.

Really? Reports of Tesla's dismal build quality are everywhere. Never forget that it was a German engineer who invented the automobile in the first place, Karl Benz. The new EQS will blow Tesla out of the water this fall and that's just the start of MB's electrification offensive..

naah.. i think the cult that Tesla has created..the early bird advantage as well as its "Robot on wheels" recent legendry comment by Elon.. all this will definitely take sometime to fade away regardless of how funky and techie other brands make their car to.
I am not a big fan of the quality that Tesla carries (poor paint quality, uneven panel gaps, buggy software etc etc) but i cant deny the fact that yes they have attained a nirvana in minimalism which EQS is not yet (or E-Tron or X-Drive for that matter!)

Although if i had a choice (and that amount of insane money) i would go for EQS rather than a car that doesnt even allows me to do any DIY and needs control of everything my car does.
