The Real Reason You Don't Hear From Him Anymore

Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg revealed his home artificial intelligence system called "Jarvis," voiced by actor Morgan Freeman, back in 2016. He gave a sample of what the product had to offer during an introductory video that was posted online.

During the video, Zuckerberg rattles off a series of commands to the system and asks Jarvis to "play us some good Nickelback songs." Jarvis replies bluntly, "I'm sorry Mark, I'm afraid I can't do that... there are no good Nickelback songs," prompting Zuckerberg to reply with, "Good. That was actually a test."

While the world was laughing at the diss, there was one person who wasn't pleased: Kroeger's then-wife, Avril Lavigne. She took to Twitter to address Zuckerberg. "You're allowed your musical opinion however, your jab at Nickelback is in poor taste," she wrote. "When you have a voice like yours, you may want to consider being more responsible with promoting bullying, especially given what's going on in the world today."

We're glad Lavigne spoke up because, as usual, Kroeger didn't have much to say about the situation. He's either developed thick skin throughout the years or he'd rather be holed up in the studio making music instead of being hit with negative attention.
