Assuming you don't accept the simulation hypothesis, you can know if you aren't a chatbot, but to the best of our current knowledge, our chatbots aren't aware and can't know anything.

Cogito ergo sum.

Of course, given what we know about neurobiology today, It's probably more accurate to say I think that I think, therefore I think that I am.
