Meet Zo, Microsoft's newest AI chatbot

Microsoft is giving Kik users early access to its newest AI chatbot called Zo.ai. Microsoft appears to be keeping a close eye on Zo.ai. Zo is a successor to Microsoft's ill-fated Tay.ai chatbot, which the company revoked in March after users got it to spew racist, hate-filled comments. Kik users who've downloaded the Zo preview note that Microsoft's latest chatbot is locked down tightly, presumably to prevent another Tay-like rampage. For example, Zo isn't willing to discuss politics.
