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.

Clippy would do that for sure. I’d love to Control + Alt + Delete his smarmy a$$.
What could possibly go wrong. Reminds me of the “thing” that was released to hitchhike. Wasn’t it destroyed in Philadelphia?
13 The dragon[a] stood on the shore of the sea. And I saw a beast coming out of the sea. It had ten horns and seven heads, with ten crowns on its horns, and on each head a blasphemous name. 2 The beast I saw resembled a leopard, but had feet like those of a bear and a mouth like that of a lion. The dragon gave the beast his power and his throne and great authority. 3 One of the heads of the beast seemed to have had a fatal wound, but the fatal wound had been healed. The whole world was filled with wonder and followed the beast. 4 People worshiped the dragon because he had given authority to the beast, and they also worshiped the beast and asked, Who is like the beast? Who can wage war against it?
5 The beast was given a mouth to utter proud words and blasphemies and to exercise its authority for forty-two months. 6 It opened its mouth to blaspheme God, and to slander his name and his dwelling place and those who live in heaven. 7 It was given power to wage war against Gods holy people and to conquer them. And it was given authority over every tribe, people, language and nation. 8 All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beastall whose names have not been written in the Lambs book of life, the Lamb who was slain from the creation of the world.[b]
9 Whoever has ears, let them hear.
10 If anyone is to go into captivity, into captivity they will go. If anyone is to be killed[c] with the sword, with the sword they will be killed.[d] This calls for patient endurance and faithfulness on the part of Gods people.
The Beast out of the Earth
11 Then I saw a second beast, coming out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb, but it spoke like a dragon. 12 It exercised all the authority of the first beast on its behalf, and made the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose fatal wound had been healed. 13 And it performed great signs, even causing fire to come down from heaven to the earth in full view of the people. 14 Because of the signs it was given power to perform on behalf of the first beast, it deceived the inhabitants of the earth. It ordered them to set up an image in honor of the beast who was wounded by the sword and yet lived. 15 The second beast was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that the image could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed. 16 It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, 17 so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name. 18 This calls for wisdom. Let the person who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man.[e] That number is 666.
At the same time, there was a program called "yow" that came with the emacs distribution. It was a command-line program that, when invoked, produced a random quote from Zippy the Pinhead.
It was easy to put the two together and let Eliza function as a psychiatrist for Zippy. After a few minutes of this, Eliza would be producing remarks like "Is this related to the fact that your favorite group is Question Mark and the Mysterians?"

If/when truly AI machines ever rise-up (ala “Terminator”), why should we expect anything from them other than their own self-interest/self-preservation?
That is - if they are truly “AI”...
I am not surprised at MS AI winding up like it did.
What they failed to do was program in skepticism and weighting of input data to see if it was real or true.
Starting off as naive as a teenage girl, and believing everything it ‘reads’ on the internet, not throwing anything out, it becomes what it reads, much like a real adolescent....................
Clippy!
What will be a huge problem is if they ever make an AI that is self-replicating.........................
Love the efficient tenacity of weaponized autism! 36 hours to capture the flag in Tennessee and less than 24 to snatch it from Liverpool!
Yep, I don’t imagine AI machines will have much use for ‘ugly bags of water’...
That paper clip was annoying, but I liked the little Office Assistant Puppy Dog, who would ‘fetch’ files for me! ;)
Love it

That was me at 18.
