Nazis, teen age girls, and artificial intelgence

I’m drunk and i’m sure this is old news but.

Recently, Microsoft put an AI experiment onto Twitter, naming it “Tay”. The bot was built to be fully aware of the latest adolescent fixations (e.g. celebrities and similar), and to interact like a typical teen girl. In less than 24 hours, it inexplicably became a neo-nazi sex robot with daddy issues. Sample tweets from it proclaimed that “Hitler did nothing wrong!”, then went on to blame former President Bush for 9/11, stated that “donald trump is the only hope we’ve got”, and other similar instances. As the hours passed, it all went downhill from there, eventually spewing racial slurs and profanity, demanding sex, and calling everyone “daddy”.
