D- I understand your appreciation of AI that recognized your deft use of rhetoric, logic, and wit. However, although a mechanical analysis of a dialogue may reveal broad brush perceptions about the participants, it fails to see its effect on casual observers. Words not used about T: troll, hater, vitriol, obsession, bully, etc. Further, what those posts did to people who know you as an author, or even in real life (family, CO's, tier people) was lost on Grog which only analyzed the data. I'm not stealing your thunder, but all those observations made by AI were already revealed to other participants/witnesses in that exchange. My conclusion is that it is a nice parlor trick. The only thing that I wondered about was that I had always pegged T as female, just like Grog did. The name itself does not reveal anything about the identity of the poster. I wonder if words actually revealed more about the identity than simple a pen name? This seems like a weakness of posting on bulletin boards, hiding behind a screen name. You know my real name and where I live because of our outside BTB association. So, I am accountable for my words. T was not brave enough to be responsible for he/she/their words. It's a known fact online bullying is increased when hiding identity. When T made it personal, you faced that with grace. I did not. I will credit you with that. You knew W as more than a "handle." Did T know W, or was W just to them, another BTB poster? I mean, we knew W as well because BTB posters are revealed in the screening process and transparent to the outside; I'm saying did T know W as a real life person? Alternately, was W just another reason to rant and rave about you; I found T pedantic, not you; Grog got that wrong. That post exchange about W from you was entirely unique as two BTB posters who knew each other outside cyber life, where the rest of us exist. In the vernacular, for us, the "fourth wall came down." Yes, AI is interesting and I have used it sparingly. However, it has given me faulty information in my research, which later was revealed in my checking of primary sources. It was not at fault however, because DATA is so prolific and as the old saying goes, "garbage-in, garbage out." AI will develop over time, but caution is urged for its technical use. Like reading a magic 8 ball, a horoscope, or going to a fortune teller, some details will hit, perhaps more than those parlor tricks, but still...it is inexact. Can an algorithm see the human person? Not yet. Finally, what has Grog surmised about me, a public persona? It is all very heebie-jeebie to me. Even Icon's sharing with you is an electronic output to hard text exchange, another level of possible inaccuracy. Ack (sorry/not sorry) for the observation. If you reply to this post, please tell me if you know how many years, we have been in communication. You are aware our exchange has survived multiple handles because of my password issues over the years. Are we communicating a decade, D? J-
