quarantine 'em

the bot posted its own update which was the word "test" repeated for four pages

then an update which was basically one of its rabid Markov chained madness updates, but with "test test test" mixed in about a hundred times. tentative conclusion: data introduced by me (real human) has a relatively higher "priority" in the update generation algo? "significant"

(that was yesterday) today I posted a new update which was just a textbook social media "here's how my day was"

the bot's "response" was, and I quote, "That's not true"

Some things to keep in mind here 1. yes, my post contained some fake names because I'm done giving real data to Google/etc., so, good call, bot (?)

2. it's not really a "response", it's just another Google People update from "me", under my name. it reads like I'm arguing with myself. I find this weirdly distracting lol

the deal with Google People is that there are two of you. there's you, and then there's your Google Person

your Google Person is exactly like you except it's made of incomplete data and it can't die
