I played against a guy and his robot partner. The guy opened 1M and the robot responded 2C, with an alert that said 2C was forcing to 3NT. The guy raised to 3C but the robot passed! Partner and I chuckled, but the guy (who may have paid to rent the robot) was not amused since 3NT was an easy make.

Are you sure it was 1M? I've never seen GIB pass in that situation, but 1♦ - 2♣ - 3♣ is a common situation where GIB passes despite the alert saying forcing to game. Just tested and it still exists, so wasn't fixed in the last update.
