Microsoft deletes ‘teen girl’ AI after it became a Hitler-loving sex robot within 24 hours by Helena Horton.
From the post:
A day after Microsoft introduced an innocent Artificial Intelligence chat robot to Twitter it has had to delete it after it transformed into an evil Hitler-loving, incestual sex-promoting, ‘Bush did 9/11’-proclaiming robot.
Developers at Microsoft created ‘Tay’, an AI modelled to speak ‘like a teen girl’, in order to improve the customer service on their voice recognition software. They marketed her as ‘The AI with zero chill’ – and that she certainly is.

The headline was suggested to me by a tweet from Peter Seibel:
Interesting how wide the gap is between two recent AI: AlphaGo and TayTweets. The Turing Test is *hard*. http://gigamonkeys.com/turing/.
In preparation for the next AI celebration, does anyone have a complete log of the tweets from Tay Tweets?
I prefer non-revisionist history where data doesn’t disappear. You can imagine the use Stalin would have made of that capability.
