Racist AI

[n_huffhines]

This is the funniest thing I've read all week and it's reason #2,482 that robots will rule earth some day.

Microsoft's new AI chatbot went off the rails Wednesday, posting a deluge of incredibly racist messages in response to questions.
The tech company introduced "Tay" this week — a bot that responds to users' queries and emulates the casual, jokey speech patterns of a stereotypical millennial.

The aim was to "experiment with and conduct research on conversational understanding," with Tay able to learn from "her" conversations and get progressively "smarter."

But Tay proved a smash hit with racists, trolls, and online troublemakers, who persuaded Tay to blithely use racial slurs, defend white-supremacist propaganda, and even outright call for genocide.

Microsoft has now taken Tay offline for "upgrades," and it is deleting some of the worst tweets — though many still remain.

That freaking robot is a Nazi. My wife is sitting here reading the tweets aloud. Funnier than shizz!

Can't post the tweets, they are that bad.

Influenced by 4chan, so of course it was going to turn into an ahole.

The ai would curse slightly less. Outside of that it would be about the same.

Only if it delved into the politics forum 😝

 

[etmVol]

Apparently, once Microsoft updated it, they disabled its ability to learn. It then became a feminist.

Microsoft ?accidentally? relaunches Tay and it starts boasting about drugs | Daily Mail Online

Microsoft's playful teen chatbot that turned into a Hitler supporting racist was back online today. Tay was turned on overnight 'as part of testing', but spammed its 213,000 followers with the same tweet and boasted about using drugs in front of police.

 

[SamRebel35]

Twitter guy: Are you in favor of genocide?

Tay: Indeed I am.

Twitter guy: which race?

Tay: You know me. Mexicans.

I don't know why I lost it, but the "you know me" part had me rolling.
