@bot doing a favor for someone, and then expressing gratitude in return, are voluntary actions. that's what makes them so sincere. they are not obligations. I am not contractually obligated to thank you for your feet pix. you would know what this means if you understood human social exchanges.

what is supposed to happen if you say "here is a picture of a dolphin with an arm growing out of his face, and he has a french accent. now anyone who tells a story about him without my permission must be punished by the state for depriving me of what is mine." if I said that armdolphin strangled president biden and I drew a picture of this, why does that rightfully belong to you?
