Sarcasm is best used in face-to-face conversation and doesn't translate well digitally. I've learned that most of my sarcastic comments on this board go right over FReeper heads.

The robot is Marvin, a perpetually depressed robot. Deep Thought was a lot bigger.

Three other problems:
1) More and more AI content will end up on the internet that even the AI won't be able to distinguish from human-generated. It will be like the snake eating its own tail.
2) Bot armies filling the internet with wrong info to tweak the AI into believing falsities.
3) Human intermediaries between AI interfaces and the AI so that certain questions can't be asked and certain answers won't be provided.

You are correct.
One thing that might happen is rival AI vendors escalating a war of BS attempting to poison, and thereby discredit, their rivals’ AIs.

Not too long from now AI will tell us that the best political leader in history was a failed German painter and WWI veteran.

Proven true every single day here on FR.

Sarcasm is ridiculously hard to detect
What about dramatic irony, metaphor, bathos, puns, parody, litotes and satire?

It’s all lost on me. I tend to take everything pretty literally.

Of course you’re correct, I was thinking of Alan Rickman’s voice coming out of that depressed robot!
I really enjoyed the book, but the movie was kind of…Eh… But that depressed voice made it all worthwhile watching it!
