Now, let’s think about that for a second or two. Such an elementary matter and such egregious error of omission!

Agent, are you sure???? You’re lying again, aren’t you?

How do you find out who your handler is as a targeted individual?

And let’s use the latest, extra-capable model 4.1 from OpenAPI. The result:
