"May we always protect this pure, innocent generation that finds magic in the simplest things. 💕 Abhishek ko bhej do," she added, highlighting what she described as the innocence of an older generation.

Bhatti also shared several other clips featuring her grandmother's interactions with the chatbot, drawing an outpouring of reactions and affectionate comments online.

One user wrote: "They had wrinkles on their faces, but their love made our whole childhood beautiful."

Another commented: "Such an innocent soul."

An Instagram user, touched by the grandmother's innocence, wrote: "Last innocent generation."
