Yeah, it weirded me out too, but I have a little trouble identifying why. Maybe I just don't like this level of anthropomorphizing of AI?

I wonder if you could do a series of different named robots instead of people?

Thank again for the feedback. I went with your idea of using images of cute robots and it indeed feels better than the realistic images. I'm launching the updated version on ProductHunt today: https://www.producthunt.com/posts/teamsmart-ai
Good idea. Btw if you install the extension you will see that I had already replaced the human pictures with pictures on AI generated images. They are still faces, but you can clearly see that they are not real people.
Because it feels like I'm being BS'ed in some way. These are basically real-world NPCs. It's uncanny and unpleasant.
I made some updates and it's now using of robots. I'm launching the updated version on ProductHunt today: https://www.producthunt.com/posts/teamsmart-ai

Interested in hearing your thoughts.
