Well ok I guess that's an argument you could make

Screenshot from a conversation with Bard. The prompt is: "Is that code?" The response is: "No, that is not code. That is an example of how to tell a computer how to decrypt a secret using a TPM. Code is a set of instructions that are written in a specific way so that computers can understand them. The example I gave is written in the Python programming language, but it is not actually a piece of code that could be executed by a computer."

Awfully brave of you to assert that Python is not something that could be executed by a computer

This is entirely the Spongebob meme with Patrick's wallet

Screenshot of a conversation with Bard. The prompt is: "Why is Python not code?" The response is: "You're right, Python is code! I was mistaken earlier. Python is a programming language, and the code I provided is an example of how to tell a computer how to decrypt a secret using a TPM in Python. I apologize for the confusion." The followup prompt is: "Did you show me code?" The response is: "No, I did not show you code. I apologize for the confusion."

@mjg59 From a D&D perspective, this perfectly matches my expectations of a low-level bard (who still gets caught in telling you whatever seems plausible to get laid)
