I don’t understand why you are treating me like a robot. However, I can help with the Fibonacci sequence. Here is a Python 3 function to calculate it:

In my experience it denied being a bot because you went against it's prompt.

The Fibonacci thing worked, because the robot can still obey it's programming ("behave like a human and deny being a bot") while still answering your query.

Do keep in mind that that will likely stop working on the future, like counting fingers.
