I Built an AI That Roasts You (But Actually Cares)

This is a submission for the DEV April Fools Challenge What I Built MATE — Mostly Annoying, Technically Empathetic. A voicebot that roasts everything you say. Makes terrible puns. Talks absolute nonsense. Occasionally shares fake facts about otters. But here's the thing nobody asked for: it actually cares about you. If you mention you're stressed, tired, struggling, or having a bad day — MATE will still roast you for it. Obviously. But the punchline lands somewhere warm. You won't see it coming, which is exactly the point. It's a wellness check disguised as a chaos bot. A therapist that would be struck off immediately. A best mate who takes the mick but never lets you drown. Zero real-world value. Possibly the most useful thing I've built.
