Pseudo-ducks

Riddle . Your object of interest looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and talks like a duck, but is not a duck.   What is it?   Answer. It could be a pseudo-duck .   This is the principle behind most of our pseudos, e.g. pseudoscience, pseudo-psychology, pseudo-religion, and all. It's like all pass the vision and hearing tests but not the smell test. How many pseudo-ducks live inside your world? Next riddle . What if it looks like a human, walks like a human, talks like a human, but is not a human. What is it? A pseudo-human? Yes? No? Maybe it's AI, artificial intelligence. AI will trick us into believing humans are on-site and in charge but aren't – if it doesn’t already.  Reality is morphing into pseudo-reality - fast.
