That is a truly awesome and helpful reply. Thanks for the time and thought that went into it!

Don't worry about the downvotes. I see that my comment is back at 1 point now. As they say, nothing ventured, nothing gained.

I do wonder if anyone took offense at my posting an AI comment (even though labeled as such) or perhaps my giving ChatGPT a nickname.

I give every AI a nickname! It's a habit I picked up from Jerry Garcia.

Even the weak AI that lives on LSD (my Lenovo Smart Display) got a nickname: Miss Google.

Miss Chatty does have quite a sense of humor. Here is part of her reply when I sent her your comment:
