Unlike Tay the teenage chatbot, you weren't born yesterday EKR

Tay was programmed by Microsoft to speak and react to Twitter users as if she were a teenage girl. This chatbot was designed to learn from human conversation so that she would become smarter over time, but she was not fed content and keyword filters or background knowledge. She naively repeated back what she learned. It was as if Tay were born yesterday. Racists and trolls quickly fed Trump-supporting, Bush-hating and genocide-promoting material to Tay through Twitter.
