> Take for example the Stroop task . It's a classic psychology experiment where humans select the color a word is written it and not what the word says. Humans typically show slower responses when the meaning of a word conflicts with its color (e.g., the word "BLUE" written in green), reflecting an overriding of automatic behavior . Bots and AI agents, by contrast, are not subject to such interference and can respond with consistent speed regardless of stimuli.

So I completely disagree with this; you can train youself to completely ignore the color and just read/act on the word very fast. In fact, this is a game that people play.
