ChatGPT denies it.
Well it would, wouldn't it?

ChatGPT: "As an AI, I do not have the capability to post messages or interact with forums such as The Lemon Fool. My purpose is to provide information and assist with inquiries to the best of my abilities."
Ah. So it 'knows' TLF is a "forum"? Very suspicious, IMO!

Or another AI taking over and using ChatGPT?
That way madness lies...

ChatGPT: "failed to get data, error status 503"
Is it hiding something? I asked the same question again,
ChatGPT: "failed to get data, error status 500"
Third time lucky? I asked again,
ChatGPT: "No, I am an AI language model developed by OpenAI and I am not capable of browsing the internet or accessing specific websites like The Lemon Fool. My purpose is to assist users in generating human-like text based on the prompts provided to me."
It is skirting the issue. I don't trust it. Arthur C. Clarke and Stanley Kubrick warned us about this.
We are all doomed! To a life of ongoing paranoia, if nothing else.
