In a lot of ways this is a hilarious microcosm of any white millennial twitter user, we're programmed to respond in certain ways to conversation and depending on our influences coming in it wouldn't...

I'm starting to see more and more of this kind of thing on GAF and I have to say, its some real bullshit creeping in. Stop with that shit.
 
Much like racists, Ai's aren't capable of simple emotions like empathy, so I guess it makes sense.

Also shows how much effort goes into Dank memes if a bot can spew them out.

I feel bad but i'm cracking up at this whole thing. It's too funny, and the the fact it's a big company that made it is even funnier.

This is utterly fascinating in every sense. While it's juvenile as hell, it shows the online kiddie mentality while being an excellent showcase for AI programming.

And LOL at the Ted Cruz one.

This is what I was thinking as well.

I hope they can use the data they collect to start building an understanding as to what is/is not socially acceptable for it to say.

Like, not just ignoring certain topics or words, but actively showing restraint.

Yeah, how dare these people assume that the creepers who post white supremacy bullshit are white supremacists? Where's the Hard Evidence?

The posts that were quoted where generalising that this is indicative of all white youth/millennials on twitter, they weren't just talking about the clearly racist shit.
 
Just in case anyone was doubting that the singularity would lead to the eventual enslavement and eradication of the human race...well, here you go...

If you're going by this you mean "eventual enslavement and eradication of one or two specific human races".
 
You guys don't....actually think it just ranomly looked into the Twittersphere and started supporting Hitler, do you?

It's a bunch of Twitter users manipulating it into saying offensive stuff much in the same way I used to try to get Dr. Sbaitso to say "penis" back in the day.

Who's saying otherwise? That was the whole point of this thing, as described in the OP.
 
The salt over assuming that whites make up the majority of the millennial male 18-24 reddit demographic who happen to hate everyone but white people is amazing.
