That said, it’s pretty impressive all the same.

It's Current Year. Names no longer suffice when it comes to assuming gender. I mean, they still do generally speaking, but you can't say that.
I’m in my early 50s and have yet to meet a woman called ‘Brian’. If this particular AI works on probabilities, the likeliest one is that ‘Brian’ is a name associated almost exclusively with people who identify as male. If it was a gender-neutral name (such as Dylan or Blake), I could see the program opting for a gender neutral pronoun.
