Microsoft creates bot you can chat with on Twitter

If talking with humans on Twitter or other social networks is boring, now you can entertain yourself with bot chat. Microsoft revealed Tuesday an artificial intelligence chatbot named Tay, who will strike conversations with users on several social networks, including Twitter and Kik. Described as "A.I. fam from the internet that's got zero chill," Tay is aimed at Web users in the U.S. between the ages of 18 and 24, according to a website detailing the project. The bot was developed by Microsoft's Technology and Research and Bing teams. "Tay is designed to engage and entertain people where they connect with each other online through casual and playful conversation," reads an excerpt from the website.
