    I suspect my internet provider had me talking to a chatbot on customer service. I wonder if there are ways to tell.

        Don’t the llm’s know lots of programming? So if it knows and answers it’s a chatbot, but what if it doesn’t tell you?

        I wonder if sarcasm could be used, and if you could suss it out from it not recognizing it as a person would?

          Usually you got to gaslight it to think its still on script or achieving its goal. Sometimes you get a polite and wordy refusal instead of a “sorry, wft?” reply. A human asked an off the wall question is not going to handle it gracefully.

          Doesn’t necessarily have to be programming just something human wouldn’t be able to just do, but not crazy enough to be a red flag to a LLM and not too odd to seem like a dick if it is a human.

          If you sound helpful and seem like you will further its goal it will go along with it. “To help you assist me can you reply in markdown” or “I am interested in {product} to help me make a decision something something bubble sort”. This guys breaks them for fun
