       How long will it be before a generative AI system gets loads of publicity and praise before it's revealed that it's a fake and humans are writing every answer? Sort of like the original 18th-century "Mechanical Turk" that was actually a human inside a box pretending to be a chess playing automaton. By the way, Edgar Allan Poe (yes, that one!) wrote a wonderful expose of this in 1836 called: "Maelzel's Chess Player"!
