I found this while browsing Reddit, and going past the first reaction of “this is terrible” I think it can spark an interesting discussion on machine learning and how our own societal problems can end up creating bad habits and immortalizing those issues when building such systems.
So, what do you guys think about this?
It is unironically a potential issue, like the Tay incident.
In the Tay case, what happens is what expected. If you are going to Twitter to learn social norms you are gonna fail miserably.
+People knew it’s a bot, and they started messing with it for the lulz. Nothing different from the Justin Bieber to North Korea case.
