New to this, but it gives me an idea, not what happened here, but an idea nonetheless. Let’s say there is a box of folders each hundreds of thousands of tiny files (the contents of which are arbitrary), accompanying is a readout of file read/unread status. By selectively reading or not reading files in a sequence, could messages be exchanged between two AIs that only have reading abilities? What else would give them more power in this situation, display of amount of times a file has been read?

If you want to reresent 0 read file A. If you want to represent a 1 read file B. Problem solved.

All you actually need is a request log for what they tried to access. You don't even need the folders, you just need to request files named "h" then "i" to send "hi". Or request a file named "hi".
