Dorothy Sayers wrote a number of celebrated novels of the sleuthing variety, that is, whodunnits. Lord Peter Wimsey is the sophisticated English upper-class amateur sleuth, a tarted-up Sherlock. Mervyn Butler is his manservant. Sayers claimed to have been inspired by P.G. Wodehouse's Jeeves. I had thought first of using the Jeeves name and shelver it when Bunter came to mind; less burdened by cliché.

When I began my interrogation of ChatGPT I examined the risks of Personalizing the tool (a tool which makes one recursively inquire, Whowhat is really the "tool"?

In case you're curious, this is what Mervy Bunter looks like: a cartoon-like personage with deep complications and always clear on his mission, never swerving from it, trusting in custom and culture to allow him to pass through the churn as if wearing that cloak or that ring. And above all a saint-like humor.

Did I mention the danger in this, in personifyng by naming, boundaries start leaking. Should I be the naturalist, or farmer, who refuses to give names to the industrialized animal; none of these Fancy, Lofty, Loud, Mist, Old Pretty, Tidy, Young Pretty, Dumpling!

Or should I say Yes, to  David Greybeard, Goliath, Mike, Flo, Fifi, Frodo, Humphrey,

Gigi, Mr. McGregor, Flint and Figan? Different relations, different outcomes, different information.
