This was several days of playing with the bot, over the course of many sessions.  No.  I couldn't just sit and feed words to her for extended periods of time.  A lot of that had no direct impact on looking for the egg, it was just me playing with words to see what had been programed in.

In the end the clue was a help, but also made it tougher.  Something that is inside of us.  That's where you see the things like Blood, Organs, Compassion start to come in.  Then I went to her blog and specifically the one about Steem coming for the word Esteem, so then I was close.  Esteem didn't work, but in the post she mentioned @empath.... and that clicked.  Empathy is something that is inside most of us.  Some just choose to be better stewards to their empathic natures than others.

Down deep, the bot's Easter Eggs are a Proof of Reading experiment.  If you read what Stella is up to and get to know who she is, you can stumble on the answer. :-)

Course I say all this not having seen the new egg hint yet.
