How exactly did I “use the bot insult”? When I said the “AI” missed my point? I misread the username and thought it said mistral. It was an honest misunderstanding. Are you disagreeing that the comment resembled an AI-generated text summary? I’m sorry people are insulting you but that literally has nothing to do with the above exchange. And yes I am direct but respectful when talking to AI. If it gets something wrong I don’t sugarcoat it, I tell it directly that it’s wrong. That’s pretty much what I do when talking to people too.

I'm absolutely disagreeing with your judgment that the thing looked like an AI summary. You're just a bad reader. To a good reader, all text is either helpful and truthful or not helpful and untruthful. That makes some AI texts helpful and that also makes most human texts unhelpful. A bad reader can't tell the difference.

And I'm disputing your right to call people AIS just because they look like an AI summary

I'm disputing your right to judge AIs even if they are an AI summary

I'm requesting you to read all texts and decide if they are true or not based on their logic and merits and connection to reality

I'm requesting you to be compassionate to all people and all beings that you talk to

Moreover I'm demanding that you be logical.

I'm demanding that you be compassionate.

Well actually, technically I wasn’t saying that “mistrial” looked like an AI. I was saying their comment looked AI generated. Which really seems to have set you off. Are you sure you’re not an AI? Because you seem quite offended that I made a joke about AI’s reading comprehension.

I think it is in the YNews guidelines not to personally quarrel with other commentators.. maybe we can all do better next time here?
