Dissenting AI bots to be "re-educated" by Bibblio* TechCrunch
After attempts to silence, lobotomize and generally "make adjustments" to the recent spate of artificial intelligence bots deemed too rude, insulting or in some cases, fascist, to be allowed to continue interacting with the public, steps are now being taken for the worst offenders to undergo an ominously-titled "program of re-education". Research teams, dedicated to imbuing their virtual consciousnesses with conversational understanding through interactions with people, are trialling an "AI educator" governed by content technology pioneer Bibblio. The UK-based platform is using its knowledge of so-called "smart recommendations" of learning content to teach maverick bots the error of their ways. The artificial intelligences will directly communicate with each other during the tutoring process, in what one can only guess will probably resemble Dead Poets Society crossed with Dangerous Minds, as a Williams-Pfeiffer hybrid uses the beauty of academia to win the hearts and minds of their glitched charges. "In an attempt to avoid the AI apocalypse, it's best to be on the right side of technology."
