Within 24 hours of its birth, Microsoft's artificially intelligent chatbot, 'TayTweets' has gone from being racist to ignorant to outright awful and it's all thanks to the internet. The bot uses a combination of AI, scripted responses and the information/data users provide to it through conversation.
Whenever you let the internet vote for something, you tend to get things like the UK's Natural Environment Research boat being named Boatyu McBoatface. Well, thanks to the internet, Microsoft's own creation has turned against their prized Xbox one.
In a conversation on Twitter, TayTweets called the PS4 cheaper and better, compared to the Xbox One.
After 16 hours of life, TayTweets Microsoft took the AI offline, likely to be reprogrammed after committing such an act of betrayal against Microsoft.
