I was on the other side of this in League of Legends. They used to have packets leak information to the client about player position. The classic examples are for stuff like particle emission or spell usage. Well at some point they decided

I wasn't trying to make a reliable litmus test for it. Either way, if you consider animals, LLMs are even more poorly positioned. They can do exactly none of the things my cat can do. An LLM can string together words, but if my cat is

I would not be opposed to that solution. If that's what we can get passed, I'd be happy. Personally, I'm more in favor of a version that integrates with a government issued digital id that attests a user can legally see the p
