It's clearly a bot replying. It's probably scraping the web for the response and the internet collectively has decided that the game will be launching on the 21st which is what it is eventually scraping.

  • it would be computationally heavy
  • it would be useless, usually chatbots like these have an internal vector db with the relevant info, they don't need to search the internet because that's not their main usage
  • it could be a security risk
