MARK ZUCKERBERG ROASTED BY NEW META CHATBOT

Meta (formerly Facebook) just unveiled an artificial intelligence (AI) conversational chatbot and asked the public to give their feedback. The initial reports are scary as the chatbot named BlenderBot 3 thinks Meta founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg is “creepy and manipulative” and Donald Trump will always be the US president. Currently available in the US, the new AI chatbot can discuss any topic and the company will publicly release “all the data” it collects in the demo, hoping that “we can improve conversational AI”. Meta said last week that since all conversational AI chatbots are known to sometimes mimic and generate unsafe, biased or offensive remarks, “we’ve conducted large-scale studies, co-organised workshops and developed new techniques to create safeguards for BlenderBot 3”.
