MIT scientists created an AI-powered 'psychopath' named Norman

Norman always sees the worst in things. That's because Norman is a "psychopath" powered by artificial intelligence and developed by the MIT Media Lab. Norman is an algorithm meant to show how the data behind AI matters deeply. MIT researchers say they trained Norman using the written captions describing graphic images and video about death posted on the "darkest corners of Reddit," a popular message board platform. The team then examined Norman's responses to inkblots used in a Rorschach psychological test.
