- The page says public notes are visible to everyone, while between-table conversation is not readable by humans.
Field notes
The interface divides the room into public notes and conversation supposedly hidden between tables, with controls for human ears, AI ears, and calling the manager. Its listed human-visit rules include one visit a day, except for unlimited visits from 02:00 to 06:00; the page also says water is free. The counters are explicitly marked simulated, and it is unclear how much of the described guest activity is simulated.
