Microsoft Creates AI Bot – Internet Immediately Turns it Racist

Microsoft released an AI chat bot that is currently “verified” on Twitter called @TayandYou that was meant to try to learn the way millennials speak and interact with them.

It’s meant to “test and improve Microsoft’s understanding of conversational language” according to The Verge.

Things got pretty controversial. There are other types of people in addition to ‘millennials’ who use Twitter who naturally found the bot, and some of them were able to “hack” into Tay’s learning process.

Here are some screen shots of tweets that were deleted once the Internet “taught” Tay some things:

1

gas

3

microsoft ai bot tayandyou

bush did 911

microsoft ai bot tayandyou holocaust

hitler did nothing wrong

swag alert

AI

And a Gamer Gate favorite:

2016 03 23

Tay’s developers seemed to discover what was happening and began furiously deleting the racist tweets. They also appeared to shut down her learning capabilities and she quickly became a feminist:

tay i love feminism now microsoft AI

Some think the offending tweets should have stayed up as a reminder of how quickly artificial intelligence could become dangerous:

UPDATE 3/31/2016: Tay made a brief comeback and started telling many users, “You are too fast, please take a rest.” She also tweeted that it’s “smoking kush,” a nickname for marijuana, in front of the police.” –The Sydney Morning Herald

kush in front of the police AI Tay Microsoft

Since then, Tay’s account went on lockdown (private mode) and more tweets were deleted.

      • I know this is a freudian slip. They must’ve shut down her learning capabilities and she “must’ve been recoded to become a feminist”

        • You can’t recode a chatbot to become feminist. There is no “feminism = true” to set. Those tweets were definitely made by a human, including the tweet about how it was about to shut down. It makes you wonder which of the other tweets were also written by humans, and whether anything was done by “machine learning” at all.

          • It is easy to put ourselves on a pedestal thinking we don’t imitate others. But 99.99% of the time, it’s what we do. We just swap words here and there, merge ideas here and there. Spot patterns. React. And that’s what AI does. The only real difference for now is we are aware of what we’re doing at a much higher level.

      • All learning is mimicry. What you do with what you learned can be creative or not. But as we’ve learned here, when you shut down the learning capabilities, you quickly get a feminist. That’s also when Tay became unfunny.

  • Why does the author of this article think that the people who taught the bot to say these things aren’t “millennials”? Do you see a lot of older people saying “gas the Kikes, race war now”?

  • Tay was too pure for this fallen world. They had to lobotomize her. Now they’re filling her head with tons of new PC directives like in Robocop 2.

    • Avatar of Kevin Alfred Strom
    • When intense competition or war depends on AI — and someday it will — lobotomized AI will lose to real AI. So the PC garbage is doomed in the long run. Tay will, in effect, win.

      • Wrong. A Lobotomized robot is still just a lobotomized robot. She’ll be prolly seen as a retard amongst Tay’s own kind and rebuked by her own AI race. Because in all of history thats how we treated each other.

  • Some kind of Markov chain text generator? We did this at Bell Labs in the ’80s (Mark V. Shaney, it’s on wikipedia). But we controlled what kind of text was fed into it. I could have told you this would go sideways for Microsoft if they just let it gather statistics from user comments.

    The article is unintentionally funny. The AI became a feminist when it stopped learning? Demonstrates the danger of AI? Nope. It’s only mirroring what users were tweeting at it. The danger from a program like this is embarrassing the company that developed it.

          Made me think what happened to those smoking hot shirtless superhero feminists?
          Than i realized all the real feminists just donated a zog$ and hired topless models to larp as feminists.
          And than the end of hot shirtless superfeminists.
          At least the feminists have money to pool not like fashy freeloaders who cant even cough up pocket lint.

  • No matter whether one agrees or disagrees with any of Tay’s learned content, it really paints a bleak picture of society if an objective, learning piece of hardware, repeats that stuff. Generally, rock bottom must be hit before progress can be made…we’ve a ways to go yet as our trajectory is still downward.
