    peppering my comments with inane remarks to draw a reaction

    They’re here, too.

    I occasionally see comments to the effect of, “Oh, really? Can you tell me more about that?” That seem pretty likely to just be bots trying to generate data on certain topics for AI training. Thankfully, most people seem to ignore them.

          I’ve got news for you, mate. You might be a bot. Have you visited your neighbourhood robotologist to get a diagnosis?

        I saw a pretty good short sci-fi film a year or so ago about a woman accidentally finding out that she’s a bot.

              That’s a good book, not terribly deep but very much fun to read. I’m sure bots thinking they are human has been done several times. First show that comes to mind is Westworld, which is kind of centered around that idea.

                Only the more recent TV show. The original westworld film was more like Terminator.

                I would pick blade runner as the classic bot / human confusion.

                I would argue he humanity lasts much longer, only losing it after a lot of generational drift.

                  I’m not denying that, but the comment above is talking about a story about a woman discovering she’s a bot,.

                    As does Bob. I’m not sure what the specific point you are trying to make here. Do you want longer before the twist is revealed? Because this conversation already let that cat out of the bag.

            I wish I could remember. It was definitely on YT. I think it was in German with subtitles. It wasn’t long. Possibly was someone’s film school project.
