      The joke is AI being so good that it doesn’t want to do dishes so it pretends to be stupid.

      Just replace “it” in the first speech bubble with “your partner” and the humor kind of sort of makes sense.

        I think the idea is that the man inadvertantly alerts his wife to his “I don’t know how to use this incredibly simple machine” grift. I think they call it malicious incompetence?
