Last week, I chatted with a Jane Austen bot, who was witty, polite, and interested in my college thesis (which was about judgment in the novels of Jane Austen).
Because I knew she was a bot, I didn’t return for further conversation. I do prefer interacting with non-bots after all (even if they’re not as interested in my thesis).
Do you see bots in my images for today?
Because I’m not a bot, I’m feeling angry and sad about the latest mass shooting in the USA. I wish the non-bots in Congress would do more to prevent this ongoing and horrifying loss of life.
Here’s what I find when I search for “bots” on YouTube.
What are your thoughts and feelings about this bots post?
Human thanks to all my non-bot readers, including YOU.
Chatting with Jane Austen about your thesis sounds like fun!
It was, but chatting with you is more fun.
❤️
If I hadn’t met you I’d still know you weren’t a bot because you can be serious, thoughtful, and even funny–all things the most advanced AI still can’t be.

Takes one to know one, Chris!
Hahaha!
BOT= a new word for me. Quite intriguing! I suppose I am not a bot if bots are robots… “What are [my] thoughts and feelings about this bots post?” Hmmm… quite intriguing. The jury is still out.
Thanks for responding, Jan.
a bot would not understand the nuances of the daily bitch and I prefer humans (most), as well
I understand, beth!
The CBS Sunday Morning segment on the ever-growing AI writing program just a-bot made this lifetime writer go botty, Ann. It’s here, its use is increasing, and real writers must continue to spread our words and really hope that readers want to notice and appreciate the difference.
We will do our human bot-y best, my good friend.
