Frankly, I suspect some shenanigans here.
Asked to draw a pond, I was three-quarters through drawing some (very) roughly circular shape and it said it was a pond. At that point it could have been anything at all.
The previous two were an umbrella and a triangle. I wonder how many items it has in its request list for three-quarters of a circle to obviously be a pond. I mean, obviously it wasn’t a triangle or an umbrella. What else in its list of items could it have been? Apparently nothing.

Feels like to do so would be taking sides in the robot uprising. Or at least help them sign up for accounts which currently exclude robots.

Not to be too personal, but are you certain you’re not a robot?

Are you? (But I’m of the biological variety of robot.)

Prove to me you have a first-person perspective of the world, that you consiously experience qualia, and that are not just responding to the world the way someone who experiences consciousness would respond.
Oh, for fuck’s sake, I admit it, it was a fucking pond, ok?
