    As I said elsewhere, that’s like saying the internet is just websites (and apparently for some people, that’s all it is).

    However, it’s irrelevant, Doctorow may have wanted to just discuss chatbots, but that doesn’t mean that’s all I’m allowed to discuss. I’ve tried to make it clear that I’m not just talking about chatbots. If I wasn’t clear enough on that point, I apologise

    Now that this has been cleared up, do you have anything further to discuss?
