40、sible for such lies,calling them out and seeking redress（赔偿）.With AI,we cant.AIs are doubly misleading:an AI that sends a crying-with-laughter emoji is not only not crying with laughter,but it is also incapable of any such feeling.It would be more ethical to design chatbots to be noticeably differen

41、t from humans.To minimize the possibility of manipulation and harm,we need to be reminded that we are talking to a chatbot.We should set some limits and rules.Such rules should be the standard for chatbots that are supposed to be informative,as a safeguard to our autonomy.32.What does the author int
