I still remember Emacs Psychotherapist, a chatbot that replied to everything you say with vague nonsense like "If you say so" or "Maybe". It required the computing power of a toaster and was just as useful as modern AI. And we had it in 1967!
Welcome to ELIZA Eliza is a mock Rogerian psychotherapist. The original program was described by Joseph Weizenbaum in 1966. This implementation is by Norbert Landsteiner 2005.

I mean, if you look at Stone-Cold Basilisk, you get turned into stone, so I'd say yes.
Stone-Cold Basilisk {4}{G} Creature — Basilisk Whenever this creature blocks or becomes blocked by a creature with fewer letters in its name, destroy that creature at end of combat. (Punctuation and spaces aren’t letters.) Whenever an opponent reads this creature, that player is turned to stone until end of turn. Stoned players can’t attack, block, cast spells, or activate abilities. 2½/5 Illustrated by Don Hazeltine
