This is the funniest fucking thing. Holy shit
 
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.
any white millennial Twitter user
Not salt. I'm Hispanic (and not the white-passing kind) so I've no reason to be personally offended. I just think generalizations like this are fucking stupid.

How about you. Why are you so sensitive to people taking issue with that kind of rhetoric?
 
Probably for the same reason he thinks generalizations about groups of people are bullshit. I think the whole "punching up vs punching down" thing is bullshit in general.

Hmm, I think they're probably taking some liberty with my meaning then. I'm not claiming that all white millennial twitter users are racist, only that this is a good example of what could happen to any white millennial who joins twitter and is embroiled in the language of hate. Depending on their views and influences, they'd likely turn out just like this twitter bot.

I think they probably just isolated the "any white millennial twitter user" part and stopped reading there.

I'm sensitive because I belong to the feminazi outrage culture internet mob hivemind social justice warrior coalition that's secretly controlling the media to brainwash people into thinking it's okay to be racist against white people!
 
All it seems to be doing is picking out keywords and then searching twitter for similar, old tweets to match up with those. The reason why it seems so lifelike is because it's regurgitating stuff that was originally written by real people.
 

god damn

this AI seems to be really smart
it's unfortunate that trolls had to mess with it (although it did give some hilariously ridiculous results) but even with that, the AI has shown some pretty crazy intelligence

looking forward to what it will look like once they implement better filters (they seriously need to...)
