Going mad or just normal

Having just done a long trip to an area I'm not familiar with, I set the "sat nav" up for guidance and then found myself saying things like "thank you" or "are you sure" etc.

Is it normal to talk to your "sat nav" ? and expect an answer ?

Definitely. At least I do it.
I also thank my smart speaker (and tell it off when it gets it wrong or ignores me).
 
Mine talks back to me if I’m not careful, very unnerving
 
Mine appears to be totally disinterested in my thoughts or opinions, I really don't know
why I talk to it at all?
 
It's an odd thing cos the Sat Nav is not alone in ignoring me - so does the car radio and the TV generally. Just as well I don't take offence!
 
I don’t usually argue with my sat nav’ (apart from the terrible mispronounced road river & area names in my local area, however to device that I often do argue with is Alexa o_O
