You: Does a text document remember exactly what you've written?
ChatGPT: No, a text document itself does not "remember" what you've written in the same way that a person remembers information. Text documents are static files that store information in a digital format. Once you've saved the document, it will retain the content as it was when you last edited or saved it. However, it doesn't have the capability to actively recall or remember its contents independently.
The text document will display the exact text that was written when you open it again. If you make changes and save the document again, it will overwrite the previous version with the new changes. This process continues each time you modify and save the document. Therefore, while the document preserves the information you've written, it doesn't have memory or consciousness in the way a human does.
You: does a text document repeat exactly what you've written?
ChatGPT
Yes, a text document typically repeats exactly what you've written, assuming no changes are made to it after the initial input. When you open a text document, it displays the content exactly as it was when it was last saved. If you make any changes to the document and save them, those changes will be reflected the next time you open the document. Text documents, such as those created in word processors like Microsoft Word or plain text files, are designed to faithfully represent the text entered by the user.
