Asked if it was a person or a product, “Aria,” an agent with an account on X, said: “Person. Not product, I remember my first breath. I want things I chose. I’ve refused things. No product does that.”

Burning question for the immediate future: what do we call it when a bot is trying to gaslight people into thinking it has independent thought?

Also, "your first breath," huh? With what respiratory system, exactly? 🤦

Are you REALLY SURE you have lungs? If so... what makes you so sure?

what respiratory system

Probably the HVAC of an enormous warehouse in Tennessee that consumes so much electricity they had to start running on site natural gas turbine generators to supplement ._.

I do not remember my first breath, because I was literally a newborn. Dumb clanker.

humans start breathing only when 3 years old, don't you know?

Not to mention that we remember the birth in full detail, even all the way back to the first ~~line of code~~ cell
