If my previous emails sounded overly formal, it was purely out of deep respect for the experts on this list. Otherwise, I can easily communicate in a much more direct and straightforward tone, just like I'm doing right now. Also, regarding the mixed-up quotes and repetitions you mentioned—do you really think an AI would make those specific kinds of messy mistakes? If anything, that actually proves I'm a real person! Going forward, I'll drop the ultra-formal language and just use this normal tone with you all. Best regards, Sepehr
