[ExI] Hidden rules of Microsoft copilot.

[William Flynn Wallace]

So we are back to the old problem -
Is the bot really 'human' or just pretending to be 'human'?  :) BillK

There are people who think that they are phonies.  That if people knew the
'real' them, they would reconsider their opinion and drop it down quite a
bit.  But if you act intelligent, say intelligent things, do intelligent
things, aren't you intelligent?  So, what's the difference between a
chatbot who acts human and one who is?  How would you tell?   bill w
