Post inspired by the bot threat that people on Lemmy have been talking about. I’m not asking how an expert would design it, but how you would design it if you were tasked with it.

    Here’s where things get interesting - humans could theoretically come up with multiple answers for this. Some will have implicit assumptions (as the size of the shoebox), some won’t be actual answers (like “what’s the point of this question?”), but they should show a type of context awareness that [most? all?] bots don’t.

    A bot would answer this mechanically. At the best it would be something like “yes, because your average kitten is smaller than your average shoebox”. The answer would be technically correct but disregard context completely.
