There was a time when the average sitcom was filmed with a live studio audience and the laughter you hear is actually coming from real people watching the taping.
The reason why they no longer do live studio is a TV star got followed home by someone in the audience and they tried/planned to hurt her. After that they used laugh tracks, and other shows followed suite when they realized that audiences didn’t really care. Made it easier to film
