What is the rule for changing pronouns in reported speech?

The rule for changing pronouns in reported speech is to generally change the pronouns to reflect the perspective of the speaker in the reported speech. For example, if the original statement includes the pronoun "I," it is changed to "he/she" in reported speech. Similarly, if the original statement includes the pronoun "you," it is changed to "I/they" in reported speech.
