Microsofts new Artificial Intelligence bot shows that we are all lowlifes on the internet.

So the backstory to this bot microsoft created, is that they designed a bot based on A.I. (Artificial intellifence) and the bot was supposed to learn to talk like a typical twelve year old on twitter, by reading everyones tweets, and learning to talk like a human being.

Within 1 week of reading peoples tweets, and learning how to function like a normal human being on the interwebs, the bot was throwing out racial slurs, and supporting Hitler.

If this doesnt scare you about how damaged we are as a human race, and what could potentially happen with Artificial intelligence, i dont know what would.

Here are some of the tweets the bot sent out, Microsoft instantly apologised for creating the nazi bot, lol.

Hard to say whether we should be more scared of the "bot" that turns into a nazi within days, when trying to act like us, or more scared of OURSELVES because thats what the bot interprets as our normal behaviour.

Either way its hilarious and interesting, these guys inadvertently proved "Godwins Law" LOL :D

Save for later
Microsoft’s attempt at engaging millennials with artificial intelligence has backfired hours into its launch, with waggish Twitter users teaching its chatbot how to be racist.

The company launched a verified Twitter account for “Tay” – billed as its “AI fam from the internet that’s got zero chill” – early on Wednesday.

The chatbot, targeted at 18- to 24-year-olds in the US, was developed by Microsoft’s technology and research and Bing teams to “experiment with and conduct research on conversational understanding”.

“Tay is designed to engage and entertain people where they connect with each other online through casual and playful conversation,” Microsoft said. “The more you chat with Tay the smarter she gets.”

But it appeared on Thursday that Tay’s conversation extended to racist, inflammatory and political statements. Her Twitter conversations have so far reinforced the so-called Godwin’s law – that as an online discussion goes on, the probability of a comparison involving the Nazis or Hitler approaches – with Tay having been encouraged to repeat variations on “Hitler was right” as well as “9/11 was an inside job”.
