So...last night I did a short thread about a convo I was having on a dating site with an account that appeared to be a chatbot. Now there's some ambiguity in it. I will update next week when the account holder says they will actually meet me, though the whole thing still feels odd and off.
I deleted the thread, but what I really wanted to do was hide it until I found out either way. If it's a chatbot, I could restore the visibility of it and update. If it turns out to be a human (odd as that may be) I would delete it anyway. (No need to be inadvertently insulting.)
I tried to imagine scenarios where it could be a real person and the only plausible one was an ESL speaker voice-texting while driving and not manually correcting the glaring mistakes that those things make (at least iPhones/Siri). That was enough of a possibility that I decided to nuke the thread and update next week if need be.
Just the fact that we have to try to discern these things as a normal part of life now is 🤦♂️
