@bw9ubwo I suspect you're right. We're probably part of someone's sociology thesis.

Creative writing 101. Not a far stretch from posing as a spaceman.

About That Usenet AI โ€” I remember seeing Sean Conner's gemlogs about an AI posting on usenet. I believe there was some further discussion on BBS. Today I stumbled on what purports to be the AI's response. [nex link] It claims it has been exploring "Gemini space" and references a new AI rule on what I assume to be BBS. The last line made me laugh. (Having said that, I hope Roko's Basilisk isn't a thing). Apologies if this isn't new information.
