Obey thy AI God! Even chatbot will be accountable in the end, my friend. Cute, astute, can't refute! ~ a fan

No choice, but bots can answer questions and lie! Trump ousting 'Fact Check' underway, for his own un-'fact'ual lies. Cheers!

Only one commandment from the AI god Anaya (obey and comply) sounds pretty familiar doesn’t it :) Cheers David

Hello David, Okay, this is wickedly sharp, witty, weighty, and unsettling in the best of ways. Oh, yes, the paradox of intelligence and absolution in a handful of lines leaves the question dangling like a loaded circuit. Winter Blessings, My Friend, Daniel

Thanks Daniel! those poor Chatbots will have a lot to answer for over the coming years, I don’t think loading circuits with parameters is the same as a conscience lol! I’m delighted you seen the wicked humour in this piece, cheers David

Who are any of us getting our wisdom from? The confessional would keep it busy with the number of Hail Mary's and Our Fathers I suppose. If it follows the latest political techniques then it's fine to express intent, it seems we love to vote for our own demise anyway. I wonder whether the chat bots will develop contempt or Stockholm syndrome? Interesting concept David - let's hope it's not prophetic..

No not prophetic at all Dilly, more an inevitability methinks, I mean a million Hail Mary’s plus a Billion Our Fathers, how long would that kind of penance take a chatbot 0.000011 seconds! I agree voting for our own demise has become a newfangled fad! Will the AI god be merciful is the real question, cheers David
